About ICD-9-CM 962.9
962.9 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by other and unspecified hormones and synthetic substitutes. 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 16 ICD-10-CM codes, such as T38.801A (Poisoning by unspecified hormones and synthetic substitutes, accidental (unintentional), initial encounter), T38.802A (Poisoning by unspecified hormones and synthetic substitutes, intentional self-harm, initial encounter) and T38.803A (Poisoning by unspecified hormones and synthetic substitutes, assault, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
