About ICD-9-CM 38.93
38.93 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for venous catheterization, not elsewhere classified. 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 33 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 02H633Z (Insertion of Infusion Device into Right Atrium, Percutaneous Approach), 02HK32Z (Insertion of Monitoring Device into Right Ventricle, Percutaneous Approach) and 02HK33Z (Insertion of Infusion Device into Right Ventricle, Percutaneous Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
