What is cognitive impairment? Cognitive impairment is when a person has trouble remembering, learning new things, concentrating, or making decisions that affect their everyday life.
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a condition in which people have more memory or thinking problems than other people their age. The symptoms of MCI are not as severe as those of Alzheimer's disease or a related dementia. People with MCI can usually take care of themselves and carry out their normal daily activities.
84) or 799.59 (R41. 9) for Unspecified.
Major Neurocognitive Disorder Due to Possible Alzheimer's Disease (Note: Code first 331.0 (G30. 9) Alzheimer's disease.) Major Neurocognitive Disorder Due to Possible Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration (Note: Code first 331.19 (G31. 09) frontotemporal disease.)
Alzheimer's disease – The most common cause of neurocognitive disorders in people over the age of 65, Alzheimer's disease often presents with protein plaques and tangles on the brain.
Coding note: For major neurocognitive disorder probably due to vascular disease, with behavioral disturbance, code 290.40 (F01. 51). For major neurocognitive disorder possibly due to vascular disease, without behavioral disturbance, code 290.40 (F01. 50).
Neurocognitive disorder is a general term that describes decreased mental function due to a medical disease other than a psychiatric illness. It is often used synonymously (but incorrectly) with dementia. The major areas of the brain have one or more specific functions.
When MCI can't be reversed, treatment is challenging. There are no pills to slow the worsening of memory problems. But the AAN did find encouraging evidence linking exercise with better memory in people with MCI.

Use the I69- series of ICD-10-CM codes to report cognitive deficits following cerebrovascular disease. Each category of cerebrovascular disease—nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage, other nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage, cerebral infarction, other cerebrovascular diseases, unspecified cerebrovascular diseases—includes codes for specific cognitive deficits, including memory, attention and concentration, frontal lobe and executive function, and cognitive-social deficits. The I69- series of codes is one of the few used by SLPs that incorporate both the medical diagnosis and treating diagnosis in one category. SLPs should always consult the medical record or referring physician to confirm the type of cerebrovascular disease before selecting an I69- code.
The R41.84- series of ICD-10-CM codes is most commonly used to report cognitive deficits following TBI and includes specific codes for attention and concentration, cognitive communication , and frontal lobe and executive function deficits. Report this series of codes in conjunction with the S06- series to describe the type of TBI giving rise to the cognitive deficits. SLPs should always consult the medical record or referring physician to confirm the appropriate code to describe the type of TBI.
For patients with a neurological or medical diagnosis other than TBI or stroke, such as epilepsy, brain cancer, autism spectrum disorder, or a neurodegenerative disease, SLPs may report R48.8 (other symbolic dysfunctions).
Policies are often limited to services for patients diagnosed with specific medical conditions—such as stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI)—and may also exclude cognitive services for specific conditions such as mild TBI, developmental disorders, or neurodegenerative diseases.
Private Insurance. Like Medicaid, each private insurance plan can decide whether they will reimburse for cognitive therapy services. It is common for insurance plans to limit coverage to cognitive therapy for deficits due to specific medical conditions (e.g., moderate to severe TBI, stroke, or encephalopathy).
