About ICD-9-CM 249.00

249.00 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for secondary diabetes mellitus without mention of complication, not stated as uncontrolled, or unspecified. 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 3 ICD-10-CM codes, such as E08.9 (Diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition without complications), E09.9 (Drug or chemical induced diabetes mellitus without complications) and E13.9 (Other specified diabetes mellitus without complications). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
