Hello, can anyone give guidance for how to code for a partial right foot amputation? I can't find anything anywhere. Thanks
 
Are you talking a status code or current injury?
There isn't a code for partial there is for foot or toes Z89xxx. If status code I wouldn't code the partial as a foot amputation since whole foot wasn't removed.
Injury code if level is unspecified S98.921A
