2012 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 959.5 Finger injury Short description: Finger injury NOS. ICD-9-CM 959.5is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 959.5should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015.
Foreign body finger. Long Description: Superficial foreign body (splinter) of finger(s), without major open wound and without mention of infection. ICD-9 915.6 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of superficial foreign body (splinter) of finger(s), without major open wound and without mention of infection.
The level of detail provided by ICD-9 on the type of firearm involved is similar for each of the main “human intent” categories distinguished in ICD-9: accident, self-inflicted injury, assault, and undetermined intent (Table 1). ICD-9 and Australian ICD-9-CM codes for shooting cases are, at present, identical.
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.

The following crosswalk between ICD-9 to ICD-10 is based based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMS) information:
If you've ever gotten a splinter or had sand in your eye, you've had experience with a foreign body. A foreign body is something that is stuck inside you but isn't supposed to be there. You may inhale or swallow a foreign body, or you may get one from an injury to almost any part of your body.
General Equivalence Map Definitions 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.
The introduction of ICD-10 will reduce the already limited information on the type of firearm involved in shooting injuries. Only handguns will be distinguished with any useful degree of specificity. Handguns account for a small minority of shooting cases in Australia (about 5 percent or less of shooting deaths and less than 20 percent of cases admitted to a hospital.)
Alter the coding rule for accidental injury due to an air rifle: use E922.7, not E917.9 (part).
Further information will be sought on the extent of information on firearm type that is recorded in medical records. The findings will guide further steps. These may include efforts to improve the information about firearms that is recorded, revision of the classification to accommodate practicalities of clinical practice, and further development of the classification to specify firearms in terms of the Australian firearm license categories (for example, to distinguish self-loading and pump-action long-guns from other types)
Plans are in place to introduce ICD-10 in Australia in the near future. The date of introduction for coding hospital separations is 1 July 1998. Hospital separations coding will initially use the first Australian Modification of ICD-10, to be published soon by the National Center for Classification in Health. (The sections of interest here are the same as in the standard edition of ICD-10.)
Two of the categories provided under ICD-9-CM are poorly defined and pose difficulties for coding and for interpretation.
“Accidental” airgun shooting moves from the residual category of “Striking against or struck accidentally by object or person – other” under ICD-9 to the residual categories for “Discharge from other and unspecified firearms” under ICD-10. There is no defined place for coding injury due to gas ( not air) or spring power ed guns in either edition of ICD.
Approximate Flag - The approximate flag is on, indicating that the relationship between the code in the source system and the code in the target system is an approximate equivalent.
Information for Patients. If you've ever gotten a splinter or had sand in your eye, you've had experience with a foreign body. A foreign body is something that is stuck inside you but isn't supposed to be there. You may inhale or swallow a foreign body, or you may get one from an injury to almost any part of your body.
915.6 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of superficial foreign body (splinter) of finger (s), without major open wound and without mention of infection. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
Combination Flag - The combination flag indicates that more than one code in the target system is required to satisfy the full equivalent meaning of a code in the source system.
Some foreign bodies, like a small splinter, do not cause serious harm. Inhaled or swallowed foreign bodies may cause choking or bowel obstruction and may require medical care.
You may inhale or swallow a foreign body, or you may get one from an injury to almost any part of your body. Foreign bodies are more common in small children, who sometimes stick things in their mouths, ears, and noses. Some foreign bodies, like a small splinter, do not cause serious harm.
