Notes for Coders

*These are the ICD-9 diagnostic classification categories. When these classifications are updated (ICD-1O is scheduled to be published in 1993), Department staff will update these diagnostic classification and numerical codes.

**For ICD-9 numerical codes, # 800- 999, nature of injury codes (and not external cause codes) are to be utilized. For ICD-9 codes #430- 32, "underlying" codes are to be utilized.

Statutory Authority: Public Law, Chapter 574 as passed by the second .session of the 112th Legislature provides the statutory authority for these rules ( 22 MRSA §2904 S ub-§ 5, 2907 S ub-§ 4, and § 2910).
