Pt. came in to our office for removal/reinsertion of iud due to incorrect position. Looking for help with the ICD-9 code, thank you.

V25.13 states 'encounter for removal and reinsertion of IUD'. If the original was in an incorrect position, I'd be tempted to use a complication code as well. Try under Complications, Contraceptive device. Hope this helps!

Thank you, that's exactly what I was looking for. For future reference if anybody needs the code, it's 996.76
