If you search for toxic encephalopathy, there is the subcategory for metabolic encephalopathy, and both have the code G92. If you look for metabolic encephalopathy, it has the code G93. 41 with the subcategories of drug induced and toxic, both with G92 codes.Jan 14, 2021
The admission is five days long and the final diagnosis is encephalopathy due to polypharmacy with a metabolic component due to UTI. If toxic encephalopathy (encephalopathy due to drug) is sequenced as the principal diagnosis, metabolic encephalopathy as a secondary diagnosis will act as an MCC.Feb 12, 2021
Toxic-metabolic encephalopathy is a result of infections, toxins, or organ failure. When the electrolytes, hormones, or other chemicals in the body are off their normal balance, they can impact the brain's function. This can also include the presence of an infection in the body or presence of toxic chemicals.

When no intent is indicated code to accidental. Undetermined intent is only for use when there is specific documentation in the record that the intent of the toxic effect cannot be determined.
by OSI. A diagnosis that medical coding companies come across quite often, the term encephalopathy broadly refers to brain disease, damage, or malfunction. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke defines encephalopathy as follows: “Encephalopathy is a term for any diffuse disease of the brain that alters brain function ...
Acute encephalopathy is characterized by an acute or subacute global, functional alteration of mental status due to systemic factors. The 2013 Neurocritical Care Society Practice Update states that “acute encephalopathy is synonymous with acute confusional state, acute organic brain syndrome or delirium… [it] describes the clinical presentation of a global cerebral dysfunction induced by systemic factors.” Correction of these abnormalities can reverse the condition. Acute encephalopathy may be further identified as toxic, metabolic, or toxic-metabolic.
In the DSM-5 there is a coding note that states: “Include the name of the other medical condition in the name of the delirium (e.g., 293.0 [F05] delirium due to hepatic encephalopathy).
Wherever appropriate, the provider should link clinically relevant conditions. Examples of linking: Encephalopathy secondary to influenza. Toxic encephalopathy due to phenytoin, causing delirium.
Caused by brain damage due to lack of oxygen, anoxic encephalopathy is also referred to as hypoxic encephalopathy. Anoxic brain damage can occur if blood flow to the brain is blocked or slowed due to blood clot, stroke, or heart attack. It can also occur due to lung disease, prolonged exposure to certain poisons or toxins, ...
G92 Toxic Encephalopathy. This condition is caused by the interaction of a chemical compound with the brain. It is caused by substances such as solvents, drugs, radiation, paints, industrial chemicals, and certain metals solvents, medications or drug ingestions, radiation, paints, industrial chemicals, and certain metals.
Encephalopathy is often denied if the documentation does not support it . Clinicians need to document neurological findings consistent with encephalopathy for medical coding service providers to report the condition correctly. ICD-10-CM has many options for documenting its underlying cause, such as due to medications (toxic encephalopathy), metabolic issues (acute hypoglycemia, uremia, or hyponatremia), anoxia, and so on. HCPro expert James S. Kennedy says that if a patient’s altered mental status (dementia, delirium, or psychosis) can be explained by a named brain disease such as Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s disease, then the term “encephalopathy” is integral to these diseases unless it is explicitly documented that the altered mental status differs from that of the underlying brain condition. In other words, the documentation should include terms like “toxic encephalopathy” or “metabolic encephalopathy” and describe what the toxin, poison, or metabolic issue is.
