About ICD-9-CM 792.9

792.9 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for other nonspecific abnormal findings in body substances. 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 5 ICD-10-CM codes, such as R84.9 (Unspecified abnormal finding in specimens from respiratory organs and thorax), R85.9 (Unspecified abnormal finding in specimens from digestive organs and abdominal cavity) and R87.9 (Unspecified abnormal finding in specimens from female genital organs). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
