What is ICD-10-CM, ICD-10-PCS, CPT, and HCPCS?
Epilepsy and recurrent seizures ( G40) G40.909 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of epilepsy, unspecified, not intractable, without status epilepticus. The code G40.909 is valid during the fiscal year 2022 from October 01, 2021 through September 30, 2022 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
G40. 89 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Code Assignment A seizure episode is classified to ICD-9-CM code 780.39, Other convulsions. This code also includes convulsive disorder not otherwise specified (NOS), fit NOS, and recurrent convulsions NOS. Basically, code 780.39 is for the single episode of a seizure.

Other sequelae of cerebral infarction The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM I69. 398 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Non-epileptic seizures resemble epileptic seizures in outward appearance, even though their cause is very different. Non- epileptic seizures may appear to be generalized convulsions, similar to grand mal epileptic seizures, characterized by fall- ing and shaking.
Every code blue call for seizure or seizure-like events was identified.
ICD-10 code R41. 89 for Other symptoms and signs involving cognitive functions and awareness is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .

Epilepsy (also called epileptic seizure disorder) is a chronic brain disorder characterized by recurrent (≥ 2) seizures that are unprovoked (ie, not related to reversible stressors) and that occur > 24 hours apart.
69: Personal history of other diseases of the nervous system and sense organs.
If you document the word “seizure”, the patient will be coded with R56. 9, unspecified convulsions, even if you meant that the patient has epilepsy. If you document “seizure disorder” or “recurrent seizures”, the patient will be coded with G40.
309 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of G40. 309 - other international versions of ICD-10 G40.
In DSM-5, psychogenic nonepileptic seizures are classified as a form of conversion disorder, or functional neurological symptom disorder, with the term "functional" referring to an impairment of normal bodily functioning (3).
The single ICD-9 code, 345.0 Generalized nonconvulsive epilepsy, would be used for Childhood absence epilepsy and Juvenile absence epilepsy. Similarly the ICD-10 code, G40.
HCCs, or Hierarchical Condition Categories, are sets of medical codes that are linked to specific clinical diagnoses. Since 2004, HCCs have been used by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) as part of a risk-adjustment model that identifies individuals with serious acute or chronic conditions.
SEIZURE occurs when there is disorganized and chaotic electrical activity within the brain caused by clearly identifiable factors (fever, injury, etc.). HCC INFORMANT. AUGUST 2021.
A disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. A group of disorders marked by problems in the normal functioning of the brain. These problems can produce seizures, unusual body movements, a loss of consciousness or changes in consciousness, as well as mental problems or problems with the senses.
Brain disorder characterized by recurring excessive neuronal discharge, exhibited by transient episodes of motor, sensory, or psychic dysfunction, with or without unconsciousness or convulsive movements. Epilepsy is a brain disorder that causes people to have recurring seizures. The seizures happen when clusters of nerve cells, or neurons, ...
A disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of paroxysmal brain dysfunction due to a sudden, disorderly, and excessive neuronal discharge. Epilepsy classification systems are generally based upon: (1) clinical features of the seizure episodes (e.g., motor seizure), (2) etiology (e.g., post-traumatic), (3) anatomic site of seizure origin (e.g., frontal lobe seizure), (4) tendency to spread to other structures in the brain, and (5) temporal patterns (e.g., nocturnal epilepsy). (from Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p313)
The seizures happen when clusters of nerve cells, or neurons, in the brain send out the wrong signals. People may have strange sensations and emotions or behave strangely. They may have violent muscle spasms or lose consciousness. Epilepsy has many possible causes, including illness, brain injury and abnormal brain development. In many cases, the cause is unknown.doctors use brain scans and other tests to diagnose epilepsy. It is important to start treatment right away. There is no cure for epilepsy, but medicines can control seizures for most people. When medicines are not working well, surgery or implanted devices such as vagus nerve stimulators may help. Special diets can help some children with epilepsy.
Clinical Information. A brain disorder characterized by episodes of abnormally increased neuronal discharge resulting in transient episodes of sensory or motor neurological dysfunction, or psychic dysfunction. These episodes may or may not be associated with loss of consciousness or convulsions.
