About ICD-9-CM 814.18
814.18 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for open fracture of hamate [unciform] bone of wrist. 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 S62.143B (Displaced fracture of body of hamate [unciform] bone, unspecified wrist, initial encounter for open fracture) and S62.146B (Nondisplaced fracture of body of hamate [unciform] bone, unspecified wrist, initial encounter for open fracture). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
