Hello,
I am having trouble finding the correct ICD-9 code for some chest x-rays that indicate airspace disease. Our electronic coder points to 516.9 (Unspecified alveolar and paretoalveolar pneumopathy), but I can not confirm that by any entry in the index. I am also considering 518.89.

I am fairly new at this... so I am seeking assistance. Any help would be appreciated!
