About ICD-9-CM 655.73
655.73 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for decreased fetal movements, affecting management of mother, antepartum condition or complication. 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 O36.8120 (Decreased fetal movements, second trimester, not applicable or unspecified), O36.8130 (Decreased fetal movements, third trimester, not applicable or unspecified) and O36.8190 (Decreased fetal movements, unspecified trimester, not applicable or unspecified). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
