ICD-10 G40.89 is a billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other seizures. The code is valid for the year 2019 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.
The ICD-10-CM code G40.911 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like new-onset refractory status epilepticus or status epilepticus due to refractory epilepsy. Unspecified diagnosis codes like G40.911 are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition.

What is the ICD 10 code for early onset dementia? ICD-10 code G30. 0 for Alzheimer's disease with early onset is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system . How do you code Alzheimer's dementia? Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia. Alzheimer's dementia requires two ICD-9-CM codes.
Why ICD-10 codes are important
3 Generalized idiopathic epilepsy and epileptic syndromes.
ICD-10 code G40 for Epilepsy and recurrent seizures is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
G40. 909 Epilepsy, unsp, not intractable, without status epilepticus - ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes.
CPT codes 95970, 95974 and 95975 may be performed in the office without precertification. Data shows that epilepsy is common and that about 10 percent of Americans will have at least one seizure in their lifetime. Some people have one or two attacks and then never have another again.
Epilepsy, unspecified, not intractable A group of disorders marked by problems in the normal functioning of the brain. These problems can produce seizures, unusual body movements, a loss of consciousness or changes in consciousness, as well as mental problems or problems with the senses.
ICD-10-CM Diagnostic Coding for Non-Epileptic Seizures. G40 Codes and R56.
Epileptic seizures related to external causes, not intractable, without status epilepticus. G40. 509 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 G40.
If documentation does not indicate a specific cause for the seizure-like activity it is appropriate to code R56. 9 for unspecified convulsions.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM G40. 309 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of G40.
Seizures may be the result of genetics or a brain injury, but often their cause is unknown. The words “seizure disorder” and “epilepsy” are often used interchangeably. However, “provoked” seizures, such as those due to severe hypoglycemia, are not considered to be forms of epilepsy.
SEIZURE occurs when there is disorganized and chaotic electrical activity within the brain caused by clearly identifiable factors (fever, injury, etc.). HCC INFORMANT. AUGUST 2021.
A seizure that lasts longer than 5 minutes, or having more than 1 seizure within a 5 minutes period, without returning to a normal level of consciousness between episodes is called status epilepticus.
HCCs, or Hierarchical Condition Categories, are sets of medical codes that are linked to specific clinical diagnoses. Since 2004, HCCs have been used by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) as part of a risk-adjustment model that identifies individuals with serious acute or chronic conditions.
Results: An acute symptomatic seizure is defined as a clinical seizure occurring at the time of a systemic insult or in close temporal association with a documented brain insult.
A disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of paroxysmal brain dysfunction due to a sudden, disorderly, and excessive neuronal discharge. Epilepsy classification systems are generally based upon: (1) clinical features of the seizure episodes (e.g., motor seizure), (2) etiology (e.g., post-traumatic), (3) anatomic site of seizure origin (e.g., frontal lobe seizure), (4) tendency to spread to other structures in the brain, and (5) temporal patterns (e.g., nocturnal epilepsy). (from Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p313)
Brain disorder characterized by recurring excessive neuronal discharge, exhibited by transient episodes of motor, sensory, or psychic dysfunction, with or without unconsciousness or convulsive movements. Epilepsy is a brain disorder that causes people to have recurring seizures. The seizures happen when clusters of nerve cells, or neurons, ...
The seizures happen when clusters of nerve cells, or neurons, in the brain send out the wrong signals. People may have strange sensations and emotions or behave strangely. They may have violent muscle spasms or lose consciousness. Epilepsy has many possible causes, including illness, brain injury and abnormal brain development. In many cases, the cause is unknown.doctors use brain scans and other tests to diagnose epilepsy. It is important to start treatment right away. There is no cure for epilepsy, but medicines can control seizures for most people. When medicines are not working well, surgery or implanted devices such as vagus nerve stimulators may help. Special diets can help some children with epilepsy.
Clinical Information. A brain disorder characterized by episodes of abnormally increased neuronal discharge resulting in transient episodes of sensory or motor neurological dysfunction, or psychic dysfunction. These episodes may or may not be associated with loss of consciousness or convulsions.
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as G40. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
