G30.0 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Alzheimer's disease with early onset . It is found in the 2022 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2021 - Sep 30, 2022 .
Early onset alzheimer's disease with behavioral disturbance Primary degenerative dementia of the alzheimer type, presenile onset ICD-10-CM G30.0 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v 38.0):
The default codes are G30.9 and F02.80: the first code is for Alzheimer’s disease, while the second provides the detail that no behavioral disturbance is noted. If there is behavioral disturbance, then the second code would be F02.81.

Behavioral disturbances in dementia are often globally described as “agitation” including verbal and physical aggression, wandering, and hoarding. 56. These symptoms create patient and caregiver distress, and lead to nursing home placement.

Common behavioral disturbances can be grouped into four categories: mood disorders (e.g., depression, apathy, euphoria); sleep disorders (insomnia, hypersomnia, night-day reversal); psychotic symptoms (delusions and hallucinations); and agitation (e.g., pacing, wandering, sexual disinhibition, aggression).
Background. Acute behavioural disturbance (ABD) has been defined by NSW health as “behaviour that puts the patient or others at immediate risk of serious harm and may include threatening or aggressive behaviour, extreme distress, and serious self-harm which could cause major injury or death”1.
Generally, people with dementia become agitated due to three potential trigger categories: Medical, physiological and/or environmental.

Primary degenerative dementia of the alzheimer type, presenile onset, with delirium
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM G30.0 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The G30 category has an instructional note that reads, “use additional code to identify delirium, if applicable; dementia with behavioral disturbance; or dementia without behavioral disturbance.” The behavioral disturbance (F02.8-) is the second code in the slanted bracket combination. The code for dementia with behavioral disturbance is a complication/comorbid condition (CC) and can impact MS-DRGs. All of these conditions are found among the Hierarchical Condition Categories, or HCCs, which impact payment for managed care or Medicare Advantage beneficiaries.
There is one more option in the G30 category, which is G30.8 (other Alzheimer’s disease). One condition coded in this subcategory is atypical dementia. It should also be mentioned that senile degeneration is not the same as Alzheimer’s disease, which is evidenced by the exclusion under the code for senile degeneration (G31.1).
The code outside the slanted bracket is coded first, with the code inside the slanted bracket used as a secondary code. The default codes are G30.9 and F02.80: the first code is for Alzheimer’s disease, while the second provides the detail that no behavioral disturbance is noted. If there is behavioral disturbance, then the second code would be F02.81.
From the clinical documentation improvement perspective, Alzheimer’s can be further specified as early onset (G30.0) or late onset (G30.1). The early onset is also known as presenile dementia, and it is usually diagnosed before the age of 65. Late onset is known also as senile dementia.
The late President Ronald Reagan designated November as National Alzheimer’s Disease Awareness Month in 1983 in order to help fight the dreaded condition. As Baby Boomers age, more people will be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.
The response was that dementia is inherent in Alzheimer’s, so specific documentation of dementia is not needed for code assignment.
