Coding Revision History

Effective Date Changes Implemented
01/01/2016
  • R2 – Replaced 81479 with 81490.
10/01/2015
  • R1 – ICD-10 codes were inadvertently entered into the paragraph section rather than the coding section and therefore did not display the code description. This revision corrects that.
