The ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) is a system used by physicians and other healthcare providers to classify and code all diagnoses, symptoms and procedures recorded in conjunction with hospital care in the United States.
Why ICD-10 codes are important
Used for medical claim reporting in all healthcare settings, ICD-10-CM is a standardized classification system of diagnosis codes that represent conditions and diseases, related health problems, abnormal findings, signs and symptoms, injuries, external causes of injuries and diseases, and social circumstances.
The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.

F80. 1 - Expressive language disorder | ICD-10-CM.
Expressive aphasia is a communication disorder that can make it difficult to produce speech. It's also known as Broca's aphasia, because it usually occurs after damage to an area of the brain called the Broca's area. There are many types of aphasia, and it's possible to have more than one.
