The ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting provide extensive notes and instruction for coding pain (category G89). Review these guidelines in full. The following summary identifies key points.#N#When seeking a pain diagnosis, identify as precisely as possible the pain’s location and/or source. If pain is the primary symptom and you know the location, the Alphabetic Index generally will provide all the information you need.#N#Only report pain diagnosis codes from the G89 category as the primary diagnosis when: 1 The acute or chronic pain and neoplasm pain provide more detail when used with codes from other categories; or 2 The reason for the service is for pain control or pain management.
Do not report codes from category G89 as the first-listed diagnosis if you know the underlying (definitive) diagnosis and the reason for the service is to manage/treat the underlying condition. You may report the acute/chronic pain code (G89) as a secondary diagnosis if the diagnosis provides additional, relevant information not adequately explained by the primary diagnosis code.
Next to the entry for “Pain, abdominal,” there is the code R10.9 Unspecified abdominal pain. If “flank pain” is all you have to work with from the documentation, then R10.9 is the code to use. But if there is additional documentation that supports a more specific code under abdominal pain, you should choose that code instead. For instance, if further questioning helps the doctor determine the pain is in the upper right abdomen, you’ll use R10.11 Right upper quadrant pain.
As a sign or symptom, pain is subject to the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for coding signs and symptoms. The general rule for physician coding is that you should use a code describing a symptom or sign “when a related definitive diagnosis has not been established (confirmed) by the provider,” the Official Guidelines state.
The ICD-10-CM Index indicates that pain NOS is reported with code R52 (Pain, unspecified). However, reimbursement for this vague code is likely to be problematic, so try to obtain a more specific diagnosis whenever possible.
You must code flank pain as unspecified abdominal pain (R10.9) unless the physician provides additional information about the location of the pain, such as whether it is in the upper or lower portion of the abdomen. Pelvic pain is classified to code R10.2 (Pelvic and perineal pain).
For example, you can assign a G89 code to indicate that the pain is acute or chronic. You should assign the site-specific pain code first unless the purpose of the encounter is pain management, in which case the G89 code is first. For example, a patient is referred for ankle x-rays for chronic right ankle pain.
Pain that does not point to a specific body system is classified in the Symptoms and Signs chapter. For example, abdominal pain is classified to category R10. Certain specific types of pain are classified to category G89 (Pain, not elsewhere classified) in the Nervous System chapter.
Abdominal tenderness (R10.81-): Tenderness is abnormal sensitivity to touch. While pain is a symptom that the patient reports, tenderness is a reaction that the physician observes while examining the patient’s abdomen.
Chest pain on breathing (R07.1): This type of pain can be a sign of pulmonary embolism.
Pain that points to a disorder of a specific body system is classified in the body system chapters. For example, low back pain is classified in the Musculoskeletal chapter (M54.5) and testicular pain is classified in the Genitourinary System chapter (N50.8).
