About ICD-9-CM 954.8
954.8 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for injury to other specified nerve(s) of trunk, excluding shoulder and pelvic girdles. 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 3 ICD-10-CM codes, such as S24.3XXA (Injury of peripheral nerves of thorax, initial encounter), S24.8XXA (Injury of other specified nerves of thorax, initial encounter) and S34.6XXA (Injury of peripheral nerve(s) at abdomen, lower back and pelvis level, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
