About ICD-9-CM 300.16
300.16 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for factitious disorder with predominantly psychological signs and symptoms. 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 F44.89 (Other dissociative and conversion disorders) and F68.11 (Factitious disorder imposed on self, with predominantly psychological signs and symptoms). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
