Spine Centers of Excellence – update to code set
The Spine Centers of Excellence (COE) Medical Policy was updated with the addition of ICD-9 code 847.0 (neck strain) with effective dates of service August 1 and after.
This code will apply as a condition included within the Spine COE program. There is minimal claims volume with this ICD-9 as a primary diagnosis, so this update should have little to no impact for practices.
To refer to the Spine COE medical policy, please access the
provider manual's authorization section.
