2022 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G56.01 G56.01 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM G56.01 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of G56.01 - other international versions of ICD-10 G56.01 may differ.

Release Right Carpal, Percutaneous Endoscopic Approach ICD-10-PCS 0PNM4ZZ is a specific/billable code that can be used to indicate a procedure.
Open carpal tunnel release (CPT 64721) is a Group 2 procedure, reimbursed at $446, nearly three times less than the endoscopic procedure. It was around this time that more surgeons began discovering the benefits of minimally invasive surgical techniques for carpal tunnel release.
Both endoscopic and open carpal tunnel release surgeries are unilateral codes. To report bilateral injections, either append modifier 50 to the single code or bill the code on two lines and append modifiers RT and LT, depending on the insurance carrier's preference.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the palm of the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. The carpal tunnel—a narrow, rigid passageway of ligament and bones at the base of the hand—houses the median nerve and the tendons that bend the fingers.
ICD-10 code G56. 22 for Lesion of ulnar nerve, left upper limb is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .

Entrapment of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, which is formed by the flexor retinaculum and the carpal bones; this syndrome may be associated with repetitive occupational trauma, wrist injuries, amyloid neuropathies, rheumatoid arthritis, acromegaly, pregnancy, and other conditions; symptoms include burning pain and paresthesias involving the ventral surface of the hand and fingers which may radiate proximally; impairment of sensation in the distribution of the median nerve and thenar muscle atrophy may occur.
Mononeuropathies of upper limb. Clinical Information. Entrapment of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, which is formed by the flexor retinaculum and the carpal bones. This syndrome may be associated with repetitive occupational trauma (cumulative trauma disorders); wrist injuries; amyloid neuropathies; rheumatoid arthritis (see arthritis, ...
The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway of ligament and bones at the base of your hand. It contains nerve and tendons. Sometimes, thickening from irritated tendons or other swelling narrows the tunnel and causes the nerve to be compressed. Symptoms usually start gradually.
Treatment includes resting your hand, splints, pain and anti-inflammatory medicines, and surgery. Reimbursement claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015 require the use of ICD-10-CM codes.

The ICD code G560 is used to code Carpal tunnel syndrome. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a medical condition in which the median nerve is compressed as it travels through the wrist at the carpal tunnel and causes pain, numbness and tingling, in the part of the hand that receives sensation from the median nerve.
Some of the individual predisposing factors include: diabetes, obesity, pregnancy, hypothyroidism, and a narrow-diameter carpal tunnel. CTS may also result from an injury that causes internal scarring or mis-aligned wrist bones.
