About ICD-9-CM 15.09
15.09 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for other diagnostic procedures on extraocular muscles and tendons. 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 2 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 08JL0ZZ (Inspection of Right Extraocular Muscle, Open Approach) and 08JM0ZZ (Inspection of Left Extraocular Muscle, Open Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
