About ICD-9-CM V82.79
V82.79 is an ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for other genetic screening. 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 Z13.79 (Encounter for other screening for genetic and chromosomal anomalies) and Z13.89 (Encounter for screening for other disorder). All of these are approximate matches, so review the record to pick the right one.
