Need ICD 10 code for multiple joint pain

Hello all,


I am trying to find a corresponding ICD 10 code for 719.49 (pain in multiple joints)- My cross-over does not show any for "multiple" joints-does this mean we have to list each location seperately on our claim?

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

Thank you!
 
Multiple joints

Hi,

ICD9CM code 719.49 converts to M25.50 Pain in unspecified joint. in ICD-10CM. However I would suggest querying your physician for more detail i.e. the specific joint and code appropriately. Avoid the use of "unspecified" if possible.

Best regards,
