Functional quadriplegia. R53.2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM R53.2 became effective on October 1, 2018.
Paraplegia (paraparesis) and quadriplegia (quadriparesis) G82 is a non-billable ICD-10 code for Paraplegia (paraparesis) and quadriplegia (quadriparesis).
The ICD-10-CM guidelines define a sequela as “the residual effect (condition produced) after the acute phase of an illness or injury has terminated.” The general coding guidelines in ICD-10-CM for coding of sequelae are essentially the same as coding of late effects in ICD-9-CM and are as follows:
Other medical conditions that contribute to functional quadriplegia include frailty, morbid obesity, and respiratory diseases. In many cases, this condition is accompanied by debilitating arthritis, which limits the patient’s mobility at home and in long-term care facilities.

Paraparesis occurs when you're partially unable to move your legs. The condition can also refer to weakness in your hips and legs. Paraparesis is different from paraplegia, which refers to a complete inability to move your legs.
Paralysis is a problem moving the body due to disease or injury to the nervous system. There are two types: Paraplegia—full or partial paralysis of the lower half of the body. Quadriplegia, sometimes called tetraplegia—paralysis of both legs and both arms.
Spastic quadriplegia cerebral palsy is a form of cerebral palsy that affects both arms and legs and often the torso and face. Quadriplegia is the most severe of the three types of spastic cerebral palsy. It requires lifelong treatment and support.[1] Paraplegia and Quadriplegia.
Quadriplegia refers to paralysis from the neck down, including the trunk, legs and arms. The condition is typically caused by an injury to the spinal cord that contains the nerves that transmit messages of movement and sensation from the brain to parts of the body.
Incomplete quadriplegia involves weakness or paralysis of all four limbs. Depending on the severity of the spinal cord injury, individuals may have residual movement. About 47% of all spinal cord injuries result in incomplete quadriplegia, making it the most common type of spinal cord injury.

Paresis describes weakness or partial paralysis. In contrast, both paralysis and the suffix -plegia refer to no movement.
ICD-10 code G83. 9 for Paralytic syndrome, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
G80.0 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy. The code G80.0 is valid during the fiscal year 2022 from October 01, 2021 through September 30, 2022 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.

Functional quadriplegia, ICD-10-CM code R53.2 , is defined as being complete immobility due to severe disability or frailty caused by another medical condition, without physical injury or damage to the brain or spinal cord. The patient with functional quadriplegia requires assistance with all activities of daily living. My CDI friend, Katy Good, expresses it as a patient who is functionally quadriplegic due to an underlying condition. The Fall 2007 Coordination and Maintenance Committee meeting Summary notes documented Dr. Laura Powers from the American Academy of Neurology describing it as being “the inability to move due to another condition like severe contractures, arthritis, etc., and functionally you are the same as a paralyzed person.”
Those codes were granted, became effective October 1, 2008, and were also incorporated into ICD-10-CM. It was felt these codes would help the assessment of long-term nursing care needs.
The risk adjustment implications of functional quadriplegia are identical to those of structural or neurologic quadriplegia. Both are major comorbid conditions or complications (MCCs) and both land in Hierarchical Condition Categories (HCC) 70.
Rationale: The complete paraplegia is a sequela of the burst fracture of the T3 vertebral fracture and resulting spinal cord injury.
The sequela code may also be expanded at the fourth, fifth, or sixth character levels to include the manifestation
There is no time limit on when a sequela code can be used. The residual effect may be present early or may occur months or years later. Two codes are generally required: one describing the nature of the sequela and one for the sequela. The code for the acute phase of the illness or injury is never reported with a code for the late effect.
The ‘S’ is added only to the injury code, not the sequela code. The seventh character ‘S’ identifies the injury responsible for the sequela. The specific type of sequela (e.g. scar) is sequenced first, followed by the injury code.”.
Rationale: Scar contractures due to burn injury are reported with code L90.5 that is the first-listed or principal diagnosis and the burn injury is reported as a secondary code to identify the cause of the sequela.

R53.2 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Functional quadriplegia . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
When an Excludes2 note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together. A “code also” note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction. The sequencing depends on the circumstances of the encounter.
A type 2 Excludes note represents 'Not included here'. 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.
DO NOT include the decimal point when electronically filing claims as it may be rejected. Some clearinghouses may remove it for you but to avoid having a rejected claim due to an invalid ICD-10 code, do not include the decimal point when submitting claims electronically.

The ICD code G825 is used to code Tetraplegia. Tetraplegia, also known as quadriplegia, is paralysis caused by illness or injury that results in the partial or total loss of use of all four limbs and torso; paraplegia is similar but does not affect the arms.
