Can anyone please help me?... I need an ICD 9 code for a tubal ligation consult referral.

dx for tubal ligation

hi:

if you read the description under code V25.2 ( Sterilzation ) it says admission for interruption of fallopian tubes or vas deferens & V-code can be used as primary dx for consultation.

check if this info can help you...

thanks.

If the patient was seen for the consult only I would use v25.09. I would only use v25.2 if the procedure actually took place.
