About ICD-9-CM 87.05
87.05 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for contrast dacryocystogram. 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 9 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as B8000ZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Lacrimal Duct using High Osmolar Contrast), B8001ZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Lacrimal Duct using Low Osmolar Contrast) and B800YZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Lacrimal Duct using Other Contrast). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
