About ICD-9-CM 380.22
380.22 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for other acute otitis externa. 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 7 ICD-10-CM codes, such as H60.509 (Unspecified acute noninfective otitis externa, unspecified ear), H60.519 (Acute actinic otitis externa, unspecified ear) and H60.529 (Acute chemical otitis externa, unspecified ear). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
