This memorandum recommends that the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) consider the appropriateness of one of the two current procedural terminology (CPT) codes for electroconvulsive therapy (ECT).

Inpatient rehab coding involves abstracting the diagnosis code from the history of present illness (HPI), daily progress notes, pre-admission form, post-admission evaluation, consultation, interdisciplinary notations, and (most important) the discharge summary.
If you need to look up the ICD code for a particular diagnosis or confirm what an ICD code stands for, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website to use their searchable database of the current ICD-10 codes.
Here are three steps to ensure you select the proper ICD-10 codes:Step 1: Find the condition in the alphabetic index. Begin the process by looking for the main term in the alphabetic index. ... Step 2: Verify the code and identify the highest specificity. ... Step 3: Review the chapter-specific coding guidelines.

Description: Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) involves the intentional induction of generalized seizures to the anesthetized patient by administering electrical impulses to the brain for up to several seconds through scalp electrodes to produce a therapeutic effect.
ECT is generally reserved for those patients with bipolar disorder who are unable to safely wait until a medication becomes effective, who are not responsive to or unable to safely tolerate one of the effective medications , or who have had a good response to ECT in the past.
The NIH 1985 Consensus Development Conference Statement on electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) states that "Multiple monitored ECT (MMECT) (several seizures during a single treatment session) has not been demonstrated to be sufficiently effective to be recommended." (14)
ECT is usually administered two or three times a week, although ECT may be administered daily if tolerated. In multiple monitored electroconvulsive therapy (MMECT), a patient undergoes ECT in the usual manner, but before regaining consciousness, undergoes another session of ECT designed to elicit a second (or additional) seizure.
ECT is usually considered when medications fail, cannot be tolerated, or may be dangerous, but it is a first line treatment for severely depressed patients who require a rapid response because of a high suicide or homicide risk, extreme agitation, inanition, or stupor. The average course of treatment for depression is 6 to 12 treatments, but some patients may require as many as 20. (1-3)
Up to 12 treatments may be required in some patients. A few clinicians have reported the successful use of ECT in severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, anorexia nervosa, atypical psychosis, cycloid psychosis, epilepsy with alternating psychosis, and chronic pain disorder. Those disorders are not usually considered indications for ECT.
Patients are monitored throughout the procedure, which takes about 10 to 15 minutes. ECT is usually administered in an inpatient setting, but can be administered in an outpatient facility with treatment and recovery rooms.
The conventions for the ICD-10-CM are the general rules for use of the classification independent of the guidelines. These conventions are incorporated within the Alphabetic Index and Tabular List of the ICD-10-CM as instructional notes.
two separate conditions classified to the same ICD-10-CM diagnosis code): Assign “Y” if all conditions represented by the single ICD-10-CM code were present on admission (e.g. bilateral unspecified age-related cataracts).
NEC “Not elsewhere classifiable” This abbreviation in the Alphabetic Index represents “other specified.”When a specific code is not available for a condition, the Alphabetic Index directs the coder to the “other specified” code in the Tabular List.
More than one external cause code is required to fully describe the external cause of an illness or injury. The assignment of external cause codes should be sequenced in the following priority:
Counseling Z codes are used when a patient or family member receives assistance in the aftermath of an illness or injury , or when support is required in coping with family or social problems. They are not used in conjunction with a diagnosis code when the counseling component of care is considered integral to standard treatment.
When assigning a chapter 15 code for sepsis complicating abortion, pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium, a code for the specific type of infection should be assigned as an additional diagnosis. If severe sepsis is present, a code from subcategory R65.2, Severe sepsis, and code(s) for associated organ dysfunction(s) should also be assigned as additional diagnoses.
code from subcategory O9A.2, Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes complicating pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium, should be sequenced first, followed by the appropriate injury, poisoning, toxic effect, adverse effect or underdosing code, and then the additional code(s) that specifies the condition caused by the poisoning, toxic effect, adverse effect or underdosing.
