The ICD code M00 is used to code Arthritis

Arthritis (from Greek arthro-, joint + -itis, inflammation; plural: arthritides) is a form of joint disorder that involves inflammation in one or more joints. There are over 100 different forms of arthritis. The most common form of arthritis is osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease), a result of trauma to the joint, infection of the joint, or age. Other arthritis forms are rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and related autoimmune diseases. Septic arthritis is caused by joint infection.

Equivalent ICD-9 Codes GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)

Streptococcus infection in conditions classified elsewhere and of unspecified site, other streptococcus (approximate match)
Pyogenic arthritis, upper arm (approximate match)
Pyogenic arthritis, upper arm (approximate match)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code M00.229 and a single ICD9 code, 711.02 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
