To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the seven child codes of M15 that describes the diagnosis 'polyosteoarthritis' in more detail. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of joint disease that results from breakdown of joint cartilage and underlying bone.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of joint disease that results from breakdown of joint cartilage and underlying bone. The most common symptoms are joint pain and stiffness. Initially, symptoms may occur only following exercise, but over time may become constant.
M15.9ICD-10 code M15. 9 for Polyosteoarthritis, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Arthropathies .

M15. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Polyosteoarthritis can be characterized by joint pain and stiffness. Polyosteoarthritis is related to the process of aging, as water content of body cartilage increases, and the protein makeup of cartilage degenerates.
ICD-10 code M62. 81 for Muscle weakness (generalized) is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Soft tissue disorders .
719.49 - Pain in joint, multiple sites | ICD-10-CM.
Generalized osteoarthritis (code 715.0x or 715.8x) affects many joints, while localized osteoarthritis affects the joints of one site. Localized osteoarthritis can be further broken down into two other categories: primary and secondary.
Secondary osteoarthritis is osteoarthritis secondary to another disease or condition including obesity, repeated trauma or surgery to the joint structures, abnormal joints at birth, gout, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, and other hormone disorders.
ICD-10 code M19. 90 for Unspecified osteoarthritis, unspecified site is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Arthropathies .
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis. Some people call it degenerative joint disease or “wear and tear” arthritis. It occurs most frequently in the hands, hips, and knees. With OA, the cartilage within a joint begins to break down and the underlying bone begins to change.
According to Coding Clinic: “Assign code M16. 0—Bilateral primary osteoarthritis of hip for degenerative changes of hips”. Coding Clinic's rationale is, “ICD-10- CM's Alphabetic Index under “Degeneration, joint disease” instructs “see Osteoarthritis.”
Osteoarthritis usually does not affect the wrists, elbows or shoulders. However, a less common subtype of the disease is characterized by multiple joint involvement.
M17. 0 Bilateral primary osteoarthritis of knee - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
A progressive, degenerative joint disease, the most common form of arthritis, especially in older persons. The disease is thought to result not from the aging process but from biochemical changes and biomechanical stresses affecting articular cartilage.
ICD-10-CM Code for Unilateral primary osteoarthritis, left knee M17. 12.
The formation of hard nobs at the middle finger joints (known as Bouchard's nodes) and at the farther away finger joint (known as Heberden's node) are a common feature of OA in the hands.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of joint disease that results from breakdown of joint cartilage and underlying bone. The most common symptoms are joint pain and stiffness. Initially, symptoms may occur only following exercise, but over time may become constant. Other symptoms may include joint swelling, decreased range of motion, and when the back is affected weakness or numbness of the arms and legs. The most commonly involved joints are those near the ends of the fingers, at the base of the thumb, neck, lower back, knees, and hips. Joints on one side of the body are often more affected than those on the other. Usually the problems come on over years. It can affect work and normal daily activities. Unlike other types of arthritis, only the joints are typically affected.
