Selecting the correct ICD-10 code for disc disorders can take a little bit of research. There are many options found in the M50 and M51 categories, which are: M51- Thoracic, Thoracolumbar, and Lumbosacral Intervertebral Disc Disorders The fifth character provides detail about the anatomical location within the spinal region.
ICD-10-CM Code for Intervertebral disc disorders with radiculopathy, lumbar region M51. 16.
M51. 26 Other intervertebral disc displacement, lumbar region - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
Displacement describes the nucleus pulposus pushing through the annulus and deforming the disc. A well-localized deformation of the disc is also referred to as a protrusion or herniation. This is differentiated from a “bulging” disc, which describes deformity of the annulus concentrically.
M48. 06 is NOT a 'valid' or 'billable' ICD10 code. Please select a more specific diagnosis below.
36 Other intervertebral disc degeneration, lumbar region.
Other intervertebral disc displacement, thoracolumbar region The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M51. 25 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Disc protrusion is a common form of spinal disc deterioration that can cause neck and back pain. Changes occurring with the regular aging process are responsible for disc deteriorations, although an injury might speed up the degenerative process.
Herniation and protrusion are two words for the same thing. If a piece of the disc breaks off, it's called a sequestered fragment. Surgery is almost always needed for sequestration. The loose piece can enter the spinal canal and put pressure on the spinal cord or spinal nerve roots causing serious problems.
Paracentral disc herniation is the most common (90-95%) type of herniation affecting the lower nerve root at L4-L5. When a large part of your disc displaces beyond its normal limit it is termed as bulging disc. But in disc herniation, less than 25% of disc dislodgment occurs.

9 = unspecified disc disorder. The fifth character provides detail about the anatomical location within the spinal region. A basic knowledge of spinal anatomy should make fifth-character selection easy, but only if it is documented properly. This includes transitionary regions.
These spinal disc codes appear to be a bit complex, but with some study and evaluation, the logic used to create them becomes clear. The provider can use the codes to guide proper documentation and the coder then can select the right codes with confidence.
It is already included in the code. Likewise, don’t code sciatica (M54.3-) if you code for lumbar disc with radiculopathy. It would be redundant. On a side note, lumbar radiculopathy (M54.16) might be used if pain is not yet known to be due a disc, but it radiates from the lumbar spine.
