I reviewed the 2004 ICD-9 code manual and I do not find this code 290.30.  There is a code 290.3, but it does not include a 5th digit. Am I missing something?  Thanks for the explanation.

The ICD9 code is 290.30. I know this because I have a locked unit with psychiatric residents.

Subject: icd9 code

 

Hello, it's me again,

This obviously has been my day for unsolvable problems.  I need an icd 9
code for "dementia with psychotic/agitated features". Can't find that
particular combination anywhere in my icd 9 books.

Thanks again for all your help.
