About ICD-9-CM 948.60
948.60 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for burn [any degree] involving 60-69 percent of body surface with third degree burn, less than 10 percent or unspecified. 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 T31.60 (Burns involving 60-69% of body surface with 0% to 9% third degree burns) and T32.60 (Corrosions involving 60-69% of body surface with 0% to 9% third degree corrosion). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
