ICD-9 Code 7823 to ICD-10 Edema. Use our ICD-9 conversion utility to convert legacy ICD-9 codes to ICD-10 codes using the General Equivalence Mappings ( GEM ). The purpose of the GEM is to create a useful and practical code to code translation from ICD-9 to ICD-10, and to offer alternatives wherever possible.
ICD-9-CM 782.3 is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 782.3 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015.
The ICD-9 and ICD-10 GEMs are used to facilitate linking between the diagnosis codes in ICD-9-CM and the new ICD-10-CM code set. The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.

R22. 43 - Localized swelling, mass and lump, lower limb, bilateral. ICD-10-CM.
43 for Localized swelling, mass and lump, lower limb, bilateral is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Localized swelling, mass and lump, lower limb, bilateral R22. 43 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 R22. 43 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Lower extremity edema is the accumulation of fluid in the lower legs, which may or may not include the feet (pedal edema). It is typically caused by one of three mechanisms. The first is venous edema caused by increased capillary permeability, resulting in a fluid shift from the veins to the interstitial space.
Edema is swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in your body's tissues. Although edema can affect any part of your body, you may notice it more in your hands, arms, feet, ankles and legs.
Edema is swelling of soft tissues due to increased interstitial fluid. The fluid is predominantly water, but protein and cell-rich fluid can accumulate if there is infection or lymphatic obstruction. Edema may be generalized or local (eg, limited to a single extremity or part of an extremity).
ICD-10-CM Code for Edema, unspecified R60. 9.
The condition called edema arises when part of the body becomes swollen because fluid gathers in the tissue. It most commonly affects the arms and legs. That is called peripheral edema. Common early signs of peripheral edema include the following: An arm or leg starts feeling full or heavy.
(eh-dee-ma) swelling caused by excess fluid in body tissues. Abnormal fluid accumulation in tissues or body cavities. Most cases of edema are present under the skin in subcutaneous tissue. Accumulation of an excessive amount of watery fluid in cells or intercellular tissues.
42: Localized swelling, mass and lump, left lower limb.

As of October 2015, ICD-9 codes are no longer used for medical coding. Instead, use the following three equivalent ICD-10-CM codes, which are an approximate match to ICD-9 code 782.3:
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.
As of October 2015, ICD-9 codes are no longer used for medical coding. Instead, use this equivalent ICD-10-CM code, which is an exact match to ICD-9 code 782:
Non-Billable means the code is not sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. Use a child code to capture more detail.
