ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code
In healthcare, diagnosis codes are used as a tool to group and identify diseases, disorders, symptoms, poisonings, adverse effects of drugs & chemicals, injuries and other reasons for patient encounters. Diagnostic coding is the translation of written descriptions of diseases, illnesses and injuries into codes from a particular classification.

596.54 - Neurogenic bladder NOS. ICD-10-CM.
A spinal cord injury may interrupt communication between the nerves in the spinal cord that control bladder and bowel function and the brain, causing incontinence. This results in bladder or bowel dysfunction that is termed "neurogenic bladder" or "neurogenic bowel."
Neurogenic bladder is also known as neuropathic bladder. Urinary system muscles and nerves work together to hold urine in the bladder and then release at the appropriate time. Nerves carry messages from the bladder to the brain and from the brain to the muscles of the bladder to signal a release or tightening.
Neurogenic bowel, not elsewhere classified K59. 2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM K59. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021.
There are two types of Neurogenic Bladder: Spastic bladder/reflex bladder (occurs in injuries at or above T-12): results in urinary incontinence, in which urine is excreted involuntarily when the bladder is full, often occurs at inappropriate times.
If you have an injury lower in your spinal cord at or below anatomic level of TH12/L1 you lose muscle tone in the bladder and sphincter. Due to the fact that this region is responsible for reflex bladder emptying, a complete injury results in areflexia of the detrusor (missing contraction of the bladder muscle).
There are two types of neurogenic bladder.Overactive bladder causes you to have little or no control over your urination. It can also cause you to feel a sudden or frequent need to urinate. ... Underactive bladder occurs when your bladder muscles lose their ability to hold your urine.
In neurogenic bladder, the nerves that carry messages back-and-forth between the bladder and the spinal cord and brain don't work the way they should. Damage or changes in the nervous system and infection can cause neurogenic bladder. Treatment is aimed at preventing kidney damage.
Neurogenic bladder is a problem in which a person lacks bladder control due to a brain, spinal cord, or nerve condition.
9: Fever, unspecified.
The cauda equina nerves supply muscle sensation to the bladder, bowel and legs. When these nerves become suppressed from Cauda Equina Syndrome then muscle sensation becomes lost which can result in loss of bladder and/ or bowel control.
Your sacral micturition center is an area of the spinal cord at the base of the spine. This is the area of the spinal cord that controls your bladder and sphincter.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM S14.109A became effective on October 1, 2021.
Use secondary code (s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code. Type 1 Excludes.
