PD Progression & Motor Complications

Limitations of Current ICD-10-CM Coding For PD

  • Unlike other neurologic disorders (eg, migraine and epilepsy), there is only a single ICD-10-CM code for PD, namely G20.22 The single, nonspecific code for PD cannot accurately capture motor fluctuations and dyskinesia that emerge with PD progression. Based on the limitations of a single ICD-10-CM code for PD, a 7-member panel (6 movement disorder ...

Recommendations For PD ICD-10-CM Coding

  • Based on this review, the panel recommends the ICD-10-CMcoding structure for PD be expanded to provide specificity to distinguish motor complications of dyskinesia and/or “OFF” episodes (Table 2; Figure 1). The proposed changes include delineating between individuals without dyskinesia or fluctuations (G20.01), without dyskinesia but with fluctuations (G20.02), with dyski…

Revising PD ICD-10-CM Coding May Improve Care

  • The current, single, nonspecific ICD-10-CM code for PD does not accurately specify patients with motor complications, including “OFF” episodes and dyskinesia. Consequently, the prevalence of these symptoms and their effect on patients, caregivers, and the overall health care system is extremely difficult to screen, document, and track in a systematic fashion. There is a pressing n…

Support For Revision of ICD-10-CM Codes For PD

  • The American Academy of Neurology supports the need to update the ICD-10-CMcoding to better reflect the progression of PD. Patient advocacy groups also support this need, including the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research (MJFF) and the Unified Parkinson’s Advocacy Council (UPAC), which is a group of national, regional, and state organizations including the Par…

Summary

  • Revision of the ICD-10-CM coding structure for PD is a major unmet need for a population that is expected to continue to increase over the next decade. The treatment paradigm for PD continues to evolve with specific medications now available for PD dyskinesia and for the on-demand management of “OFF” episodes in PD. The recommended changes to the ICD-10-CMcoding stru…
