ICD-9-CM 986
CMS Source: final ICD-9-CM release (version date October 1, 2014). Retired from U.S. claims after September 30, 2015.FacebookXLinkedInPrint

986 is a legacy ICD-9-CM diagnosis code for toxic effect of carbon monoxide. It was valid on U.S. claims through September 30, 2015 and cannot be reported for services on or after October 1, 2015, when ICD-10-CM replaced the ICD-9 code set. Under the CMS General Equivalence Mappings, it maps to 20 ICD-10-CM candidates: T58.01XA, T58.02XA, T58.03XA, T58.04XA, T58.11XA, T58.12XA, T58.13XA, T58.14XA, T58.2X1A, T58.2X2A, T58.2X3A, T58.2X4A, T58.8X1A, T58.8X2A, T58.8X3A, T58.8X4A, T58.91XA, T58.92XA, T58.93XA, and T58.94XA.

Information for Patients

Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

Carbon monoxide (CO) is a gas that has no odor or color. But it is very dangerous. It can cause sudden illness and death. CO is found in combustion fumes, such as those made by cars and trucks, lanterns, stoves, gas ranges and heating systems. CO from these fumes can build up in places that don't have a good flow of fresh air.

Questions About 986

Is 986 (toxic effect of carbon monoxide) still a valid code?

No. This code belonged to ICD-9-CM, which the United States retired after September 30, 2015. Claims with dates of service on or after October 1, 2015 must use ICD-10-CM codes, such as T58.01XA, T58.02XA, and T58.03XA.

What is the ICD-10 replacement for 986?

The General Equivalence Mappings list 20 ICD-10-CM candidates for this code: T58.01XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from mtr veh exhaust, acc, init), T58.02XA (Toxic eff of carb monx from mtr veh exhaust, slf-hrm, init), T58.03XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from mtr veh exhaust, asslt, init), T58.04XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from mtr veh exhaust, undet, init), T58.11XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from utility gas, acc, init), T58.12XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from utility gas, self-harm, init), T58.13XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from utility gas, assault, init), T58.14XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from utility gas, undet, init), T58.2X1A (Tox eff of carb monx fr incmpl combst dmst fuel, acc, init), T58.2X2A (Tox eff of carb monx fr incmpl combst dmst fuel,slf-hrm,init), T58.2X3A (Tox eff of carb monx fr incmpl combst dmst fuel, asslt, init), T58.2X4A (Tox eff of carb monx fr incmpl combst dmst fuel, undet, init), T58.8X1A (Toxic effect of carb monx from oth source, accidental, init), T58.8X2A (Toxic effect of carb monx from oth source, self-harm, init), T58.8X3A (Toxic effect of carb monx from oth source, assault, init), T58.8X4A (Toxic effect of carb monx from oth source, undet, init), T58.91XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from unsp source, acc, init), T58.92XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from unsp source, self-harm, init), T58.93XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from unsp source, assault, init), and T58.94XA (Toxic effect of carb monx from unsp source, undet, init). Each match is approximate, so the right choice depends on what the documentation supports.

What did 986 mean?

In the final ICD-9-CM release, this code described toxic effect of carbon monoxide. It sat in block 986 Toxic effect of carbon monoxide under Injury and poisoning (800–999).

Why does 986 map to more than one ICD-10 code?

ICD-10-CM is more specific than ICD-9-CM. The detail packed into this single legacy code was split across T58.01XA, T58.02XA, T58.03XA, T58.04XA, T58.11XA, T58.12XA, T58.13XA, T58.14XA, T58.2X1A, T58.2X2A, T58.2X3A, T58.2X4A, T58.8X1A, T58.8X2A, T58.8X3A, T58.8X4A, T58.91XA, T58.92XA, T58.93XA, and T58.94XA, so the General Equivalence Mappings list every candidate rather than forcing one. The correct target is the one the documentation supports.
