ICD-9-CM is the official system of assigning codes to diagnoses and procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. The ICD-9 was used to code and classify mortality data from death certificates until 1999, when use of ICD-10 for mortality coding started.
M67. 40 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 M67.
If an excisional debridement the code would be 0HBMXZZ Excision of right foot skin, external approach. Example: Excisional debridement of skin, subcutaneous tissue, and muscle of buttocks. (Accounting for laterality), 0KBP3ZZ Excision of left hip muscle, percutaneous approach.
ICD-10-PCS will be the official system of assigning codes to procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. ICD-10-PCS codes will support data collection, payment and electronic health records. ICD-10-PCS is a medical classification coding system for procedural codes.

Excisional debridement is surgical removal (cutting away) of tissue, necrosis, or slough. This is classified to the root operation of “Excision” in PCS. Excisional debridement involves the use of a sharp instrument, like a scalpel, to cut away/remove devitalized tissue.
For excisional debridement of muscle or fascia, coders would report CPT code 11043 (debridement, muscle or fascia [includes epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue, if performed]; first 20 sq. cm or less) for the first 20 sq. cm and add-on code 11046 (debridement, muscle or fascia; each additional 20 sq.
A procedure called irrigation & debridement is one of several treatments that can be used to fight bone or joint infection. Typically an irrigation & debridement procedure is performed in the operating room. Another procedure called incision & drainage can be used to treat an abscess.

The main differences between ICD-10 PCS and ICD-10-CM include the following: ICD-10-PCS is used only for inpatient, hospital settings in the U.S., while ICD-10-CM is used in clinical and outpatient settings in the U.S.
ICD-9-CM codes are very different than ICD-10-CM/PCS code sets: There are nearly 19 times as many procedure codes in ICD-10-PCS than in ICD-9-CM volume 3. There are nearly 5 times as many diagnosis codes in ICD-10-CM than in ICD-9-CM. ICD-10 has alphanumeric categories instead of numeric ones.
Wound debridement codes (not associated with fractures) are reported with CPT codes 11042-11047. Wound debridements are reported by the depth of tissue that is removed and the surface area of the wound. These services may be reported for injuries, infections, wounds, and chronic ulcers.
An excisional debridement of the skin or subcutaneous tissue is the surgical removal or cutting away of such tissue, necrosis, or slough and is classified to the root operation Excision. Excisional debridement involves the use of a scalpel to remove devitalized tissue.
ICD-9-CM 727.43 is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 727.43 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015. For claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015, use an equivalent ICD-10-CM code (or codes).
Ganglion of knee. Ganglion of shoulder. Ganglion/synovial cyst - hand. Clinical Information. A tumor or swelling on top of a joint or the covering of a tendon. Nodular tumor-like lesions or mucoid flesh, arising from tendon sheaths, ligaments, or joint capsule, especially of the hands, wrists, or feet.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM Z48.817 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00 -Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'. This can arise in two main ways:
De Quervain’s disease (radial styloid tenosynovitis) is an inflammation of the first dorsal extensor compartment; this is entrapment tendinitis causing tendon thickening, which leads to restricted motion and a grinding sensation with tendon movement (crepitus).
The wrist, or carpus, contains eight carpal bones. There are three bones in the proximal row (scaphoid, lunate, and triquetrum) and five bones in the distal row (trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, hamate, and pisiform). The trapezium is also known as the greater multangular, the trapezoid as the lesser multangular, and the scaphoid as the navicular bone.#N#In ICD-10-CM, most wrist conditions coded from chapter 13 (M codes) have a “3” in the fifth position of the code such as M19.031 Primary osteoarthritis, right wrist. Common conditions of the wrist and distal radius from chapters 13 and 19 (M and S codes) are:
A wrist defect often requiring surgical intervention is scapholunate advanced collapse (SLAC.) SLAC is a condition of progressive instability that causes advanced radiocarpal and midcarpal osteoarthritis. SLAC describes a specific pattern of progressive subluxation with loss of articulation between the scaphoid and lunate bones. SLAC usually results from trauma to the wrist, but may be caused by a degenerative process such as calcinosis or as a sequela of a prior injury. SLAC is estimated to account for more than half of all non-traumatic wrist osteoarthritis cases.#N#Signs and symptoms of SLAC include:
Case 3: The patient is a 68-year-old gentleman who was woodworking in the basement workshop in his single-family home. He lost his grip on a powered sander while refinishing a table and suffered a crushing injury into the capitate and hamate of his right wrist. He underwent a flexor tendon decompression fasciotomy including extensive debridement of muscle and nerve tissue, as well as a two-bone carpectomy.
Coding fracture of carpal bone (S62.1- Fracture of other and unspecified carpal bone (s)) when the diagnosis is a distal radius fracture (S52.5- Fracture of lower end of radius ).
Hand weakness or stiffness, especially with regard to grip strength.
The wrist is classified as an “intermediate” joint, but consists of many intricate structures and bones. Accurate coding of wrist diagnoses, services, and procedures requires a solid working knowledge of wrist, hand, and distal forearm anatomy.
