I have question specific to ICD9 648.93 this code lists "conditions classifiable to"... The complication the patient has is not in this list however. Her dx is 710.0. The only diagnosis I could come up with is 646.9 but it is an unspecified code and technically the condition is specified. The software system we use does some automatic coding and coded this as 648.93/710.0
I am wondering if this is ok even though the book doesn't list 710.0?

Any feedback is appreciated. :)
