M62.2

Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 9 more specific codes instead:

  • M62.20 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, unspecified site
  • M62.21 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, shoulder (also a header)
  • M62.22 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, upper arm (also a header)
  • M62.23 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, forearm (also a header)
  • M62.24 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, hand (also a header)
  • M62.25 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, thigh (also a header)
  • M62.26 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, lower leg (also a header)
  • M62.27 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, ankle and foot (also a header)
  • M62.28 Nontraumatic ischemic infarction of muscle, other site

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
