About ICD-9-CM 756.19
756.19 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for other anomalies of spine. 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 Q76.419 (Congenital kyphosis, unspecified region) and Q76.49 (Other congenital malformations of spine, not associated with scoliosis). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
