ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
81.15 — Tarsometatarsal fusion
About ICD-9-CM 81.15
81.15 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for tarsometatarsal fusion. ICD-9-CM was retired for U.S. claims on October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-PCS took over.
The CMS General Equivalence Mappings translate it to 36 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as 0SGK04Z (Fusion of Right Tarsometatarsal Joint with Internal Fixation Device, Open Approach), 0SGK05Z (Fusion of Right Tarsometatarsal Joint with External Fixation Device, Open Approach) and 0SGK07Z (Fusion of Right Tarsometatarsal Joint with Autologous Tissue Substitute, Open Approach). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
