Osteomyelitis, unspecified. M86.9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM M86.9 became effective on October 1, 2019. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of M86.9 - other international versions of ICD-10 M86.9 may differ.
The ICD-10-CM code M86.8X4 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like infection of phalanx of finger or thumb, infection of phalanx of finger or thumb, osteomyelitis of finger of left hand, osteomyelitis of finger of right hand, osteomyelitis of left hand, periostitis of hand, etc.
An acute or chronic inflammation of the bone and its structures due to infection with pyogenic bacteria. Inflammation of the bone caused by an infection, which may spread to the bone marrow and tissues near the bone. Osteomyelitis can cause severe pain in the infected bone.
M86.141Other acute osteomyelitis, right hand M86. 141 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M86. 141 became effective on October 1, 2021.
ICD-10 code M86. 9 for Osteomyelitis, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Osteopathies and chondropathies .

Osteomyelitis, unspecified9: Osteomyelitis, unspecified.
(OS-tee-oh-MY-eh-LY-tis) Inflammation of the bone caused by an infection, which may spread to the bone marrow and tissues near the bone. Osteomyelitis can cause severe pain in the infected bone. If it is not treated, it can kill bone tissue.
Acute osteomyelitis is the clinical term for a new infection in bone. This infection occurs predominantly in children and is often seeded hematogenously. In adults, osteomyelitis is usually a subacute or chronic infection that develops secondary to an open injury to bone and surrounding soft tissue.
9: Osteomyelitis, unspecified.
Subacute osteomyelitis is a hematogenous infection of bone characterized by an insidious course (longer than 2 weeks), and paucity of systemic symptoms with local tenderness or swelling are the only clinical signs.
CPT® Code 21025 in section: Excision of bone (eg, for osteomyelitis or bone abscess)
Did your provider mention osteomyelitis in the documentation? If he did, then it's ok to code history as the pt is s/p toe amputation and that has removed the disease. Otherwise you will just code for the wound.
Diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO) is mostly the consequence of a soft tissue infection that spreads into the bone, involving the cortex first and then the marrow. The possible bone involvement should be suspected in all DFUs patients with infection clinical findings, in chronic wounds and in case of ulcer recurrence.
There are three subcategories for reporting this condition using ICD-10-CM, including M86. 0 Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis, M86. 1 Other acute osteomyelitis, and M86. 2 Sub-acute osteomyelitis.
Diabetic foot osteomyelitis (DFO) is mostly the consequence of a soft tissue infection that spreads into the bone, involving the cortex first and then the marrow. The possible bone involvement should be suspected in all DFUs patients with infection clinical findings, in chronic wounds and in case of ulcer recurrence.
Acute osteomyelitis is the clinical term for a new infection in bone. This infection occurs predominantly in children and is often seeded hematogenously. In adults, osteomyelitis is usually a subacute or chronic infection that develops secondary to an open injury to bone and surrounding soft tissue.
A: You are correct that there is an assumed relationship between diabetes and osteomyelitis when both conditions are present, unless the physician indicates the acute osteomyelitis is totally unrelated to the diabetes. It does not matter if the osteomyelitis is acute, chronic, or unspecified.
Acute osteomyelitis is an inflammation of the bone caused by an infectious organism. The condition develops rapidly during the course of several days. It is characterized by localized pain, soft-tissue swelling, and tissue warmth at the site of the infection, plus systemic symptoms such as fever, irritability, fatigue, and nausea.
Chronic multifocal osteomyelitis is a rare condition that also is referred to as chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, or SAPHO syndrome (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis). The cause of the condition is unknown, and tissue cultures typically fail to identify any infectious organism.
As with all infectious processes in which the infectious agent is not a component of the code that describes the condition, an additional code from categories B95-B97 should be assigned to identify the infectious agent, assuming it can be identified. Any major osseous defects also should be identified with a code from subcategory M89.7.
Multiple sites. Other osteomyelitis (M86.8) which includes Brodie’s abscess, requires only the general region (shoulder, upper arm, forearm, hand, thigh, lower leg, ankle/foot, other site, and unspecified site). Laterality is not a component of codes in category M86.8. Unspecified osteomyelitis (M86.9) is not specific to a site.
Osteomyelitis is an inflammation of the bone that typically is further differentiated as acute, sub-acute, or chronic. In ICD-9-CM, documentation of the general site of the inflammation/infection (such as shoulder region, forearm, or ankle), along with identification of the inflammation/infection as a current acute/sub-acute infection or a chronic condition, is all that is required to assign the most specific code.
Chronic osteomyelitis is a severe, persistent inflammation/infection that can recur and be difficult to treat. A chronic infection also may present with a draining sinus, presenting a greater risk for complications, such as major bo ny defects.
M86.8X4 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other osteomyelitis, hand. The code M86.8X4 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.#N#The ICD-10-CM code M86.8X4 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like infection of phalanx of finger or thumb, infection of phalanx of finger or thumb, osteomyelitis of finger of left hand, osteomyelitis of finger of right hand, osteomyelitis of left hand , periostitis of hand, etc.
A blood test or imaging test such as an x-ray can tell if you have a bone infection. Treatment includes antibiotics and often surgery.
M86.142 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Other acute osteomyelitis, left hand . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
A type 1 Excludes note is a pure excludes. It means 'NOT CODED HERE!' An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
Osteomyelitis [a] (or OM) is infection and inflammation of the bone or bone marrow. It can be usefully subclassified on the basis of the causative organism (pyogenic bacteria or mycobacteria) and the route, duration and anatomic location of the infection.
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code M86.142 and a single ICD9 code, 730.04 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
