About ICD-9-CM 202.98
202.98 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for other and unspecified malignant neoplasms of lymphoid and histiocytic tissue, lymph nodes of multiple sites. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 2 ICD-10-CM codes, such as C96.9 (Malignant neoplasm of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissue, unspecified) and C96.Z (Other specified malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissue). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
