The ICD code R471 is used to code Dysarthria Dysarthria (from Ancient Greek δυσ- dys, "hard, difficult, bad" and ἄρθρωσις arthrosis, "articulation") is a motor speech disorder resulting from neurological injury of the motor component of the motor-speech system and is characterized by poor articulation of phonemes (cf. aphasia: a disorder of the content of language).

Hypokinetic dysarthria is characterized perceptually by varying degrees of reduced pitch variation (monotonicity), reduced loudness, breathy voice, imprecise consonants, variable speaking rate, and short rushes of speech [1.
The diagnosis code for apraxia is R48. 2. Generally, codes in the R00-R99 series are used for organic disorders. SLPs are able to diagnose apraxia, and, as such, R48.
F80.4F80. 4 — Speech and language development delay due to hearing loss.
Alternating motion rate (AMR) and sequential motion rate (SMR) are the two traditional tests of oral diadochokinesis used to as- sess motor speech production. AMR involves a single syllable being repeated at maximum rate, whereas for SMR a sequence of syllables is repeated at maximum rate.
The Mayo Clinic classification of dysarthria (Duffy, 1995), widely used in the United States, includes six categories: (1) flaccid, (2) spastic and “unilateral upper motor neuron,” (3) ataxic, (4) hypokinetic, (5) hyperkinetic, and (6) mixed dysarthria.

Anarthria is a severe form of dysarthria. Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder that occurs when someone can't coordinate or control the muscles used for speaking. People with dysarthria usually have slurred or slowed speech. People with anarthria, however, can't articulate speech at all.

Dysarthria (from Ancient Greek δυσ- dys, "hard, difficult, bad" and ἄρθρωσις arthrosis, "articulation") is a motor speech disorder resulting from neurological injury of the motor component of the motor-speech system and is characterized by poor articulation of phonemes (cf. aphasia: a disorder of the content of language). In other words, it is a condition in which problems effectively occur with the muscles that help produce speech, often making it very difficult to pronounce words. It is unrelated to any problem with understanding cognitive language. Any of the speech subsystems (respiration, phonation, resonance, prosody, and articulation) can be affected, leading to impairments in intelligibility, audibility, naturalness, and efficiency of vocal communication.

The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) is the official system to assign health care codes describing diagnoses and procedures in the United States (U.S). The ICD is also used to code and classify mortality data from death certificates.
ICD-10 was implemented on October 1, 2015, replacing the 9th revision of ICD (ICD-9).
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder X should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th character of a code.
An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together , such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition .
An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition it is excluded from but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together.
SLPs practic ing in a health care setting, especially a hospital, may have to code disease s and diagnoses according to the ICD-10. Payers, including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers, also require SLPs to report ICD-10 codes on health care claims for payment.
Apraxia of speech, identified by code R48.2, is a neurological condition where the patient finds it difficult or impossible to move their mouth and tongue to speak. It should not be confused with aphasia, where the person’s inability to speak is due to a problem with understanding or using the words. Instead, apraxia describes difficulty initiating and performing the movements needed to speak, despite no weakness in the required muscles. Common symptoms include:
Dysarthria, described by code R47.1, is a speech deficit caused by issues with controlling the muscles involved with speech production. Anarthria is the most severe form, which results in the inability to produce articulate and clear speech. Vowel sounds, in particular, may be distorted.
ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision) is a set of codes published by the World Health Organization (WHO) that are used to represent medical diagnoses. An ICD-10 code is assigned to every disease, infection, injury, disorder, and symptom. These codes are used for a variety of purposes, ...
Due to the nature of ICD-10 codes, there are thousands of diagnosis codes — over 69,000. While it’s important for your medical biller to have a thorough knowledge of the codes that apply to speech therapy, you’ll want to become familiar with the most commonly-used codes. Here are ten codes most frequently used by speech therapists, including their descriptions.
Mixed Receptive-Expressive Language Disorder, described by code F80.2, is displayed when a patient has difficulty in expressing their feelings and thoughts and understanding what others are saying. Young children are typically most affected, though it can impact adults as a result of a stroke, seizures, or a traumatic brain injury. Symptoms may vary between patients and include:
Symptoms may vary between patients and include: Limited vocabulary. Inability to communicate wants, needs, or thoughts. Confusion with spatial terms and abstract nouns. Ability to pronounce words clearly, but inability to use words appropriately in a sentence or use the correct tense or grammar.
Code R13.11 describes difficulty swallowing. Dysphagia is when a patient’s food or liquids take more time and effort to move from their mouth to their stomach. Swallowing may be associated with pain or may not be possible. Dysphagia is more common in older adults. Symptoms include:
