ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
02.93 — Implantation or replacement of intracranial neurostimulator lead(s)
About ICD-9-CM 02.93
02.93 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for implantation or replacement of intracranial neurostimulator lead(s). ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 25 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 00H00MZ (Insertion of Neurostimulator Lead into Brain, Open Approach), 00H00MZ (Insertion of Neurostimulator Lead into Brain, Open Approach) and 00H03MZ (Insertion of Neurostimulator Lead into Brain, Percutaneous Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one. Some mappings are combinations: more than one ICD-10 code is needed to fully express the ICD-9 code.
