Has anyone devised a translation of the codes E800.00 - 929.9 from I9 to I10? What could be used instead of 'codes' that will catch these for claim submitting purposes? (i.e. you might need an injury date to appear on a claim form for these DXS)
 
The ICD-10 Codes for cause of injury are V W X Y codes all chapter 20. You no longer will need an extrnal cause code for poisonings and adverse effects. but you will need a 7th character for all external cause codes and they will have to be carried forward for each encounter related to the injury. For a complete translation you need an ICD-10 CM book.
