ICD-9-CM procedure code (retired)
88.44 — Arteriography of other intrathoracic vessels
About ICD-9-CM 88.44
88.44 is an ICD-9-CM procedure code for arteriography of other intrathoracic vessels. 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 24 ICD-10-PCS codes, such as B3010ZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Brachiocephalic-Subclavian Artery using High Osmolar Contrast), B3011ZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Brachiocephalic-Subclavian Artery using Low Osmolar Contrast) and B301YZZ (Plain Radiography of Right Brachiocephalic-Subclavian Artery using Other Contrast). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
