Multiple Choice

Which body region is associated with M99.07?

This code set uses region-specific digits to show where the somatic dysfunction is located. The M99 category covers segmental and somatic dysfunctions, and the decimal extension refines the exact body region. The extension .07 designates the upper extremity, which includes the shoulder through the hand. So M99.07 is used when the dysfunction is in the upper limb, not in the rib cage (thorax), abdomen, or lower extremity.
