• M99.0- Segmental and somatic dysfunction is the most likely ICD-10 replacemento Don’t code this if there is a better option (there isn’t)o Ten options
• M99.1- Subluxation complex (vertebral) is a possibility tooo But payers are not expected to like this codeo Ten options
• S13.1- Subluxation and dislocation of cervical vertebra backwards maps to 839- Closed dislocation of cervical vertebra, so it is probably a better match for that ICD-9 codeo This code has many inclusion and exclusion notes,
and a seventh character to be investigatedo Fifty-four options
