About ICD-9-CM 771.89
771.89 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for other infections specific to the perinatal period. 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 P39.2 (Intra-amniotic infection affecting newborn, not elsewhere classified) and P39.8 (Other specified infections specific to the perinatal period). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
