About ICD-9-CM 727.2
727.2 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for specific bursitides often of occupational origin. 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 M70.039 (Crepitant synovitis (acute) (chronic), unspecified wrist), M70.30 (Other bursitis of elbow, unspecified elbow) and M70.40 (Prepatellar bursitis, unspecified knee). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
