Pneumoconiosis due to other inorganic dust
  • 2015
  • Billable Thru Sept 30/2015
  • Non-Billable On/After Oct 1/2015

  • ICD-9-CM 503 is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 503 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015. For claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015, use an equivalent ICD-10-CM code (or codes).
