About ICD-9-CM 996.75
996.75 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for other complications due to nervous system device, implant, and graft. 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 7 ICD-10-CM codes, such as T85.810A (Embolism due to nervous system prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, initial encounter), T85.820A (Fibrosis due to nervous system prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, initial encounter) and T85.830A (Hemorrhage due to nervous system prosthetic devices, implants and grafts, initial encounter). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
