Ken1 Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 Cowgirl Thanks for the reply, but "WARMS" did not do the trick for me. I have a Degentive Disc in my lower back. The code numbers are 5299-5237. All my code numbers are XXXX and not X . XXX Thanks Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder cowgirl Posted November 7, 2009 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) How about this, look at the Appendices (my goof for not listing that) it does show your numbers, but I suggest you double check your information just in case, 5237 does show lumbosacrial strain... but 5299 isn't listed. In my experence, sometimes the last two numbers '99' may indicate that a condition is in that code family but 'uspecified' or more generally within that family code range. Hope this makes sense, if not, someone else will pop in to help.
