Pain, unspecified. R52 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Intractable pain refers to a type of pain that can't be controlled with standard medical care. Intractable essentially means difficult to treat or manage. This type of pain isn't curable, so the focus of treatment is to reduce your discomfort. The condition is also known as intractable pain disease, or IP.
Chronic pain is commonly defined as any pain which lasts more than 12 weeks. Whereas acute pain is the normal sensation which alerts us to an injury or illness, chronic pain is one that persists, often for months or even longer. Chronic pain can affect as many as eight of every 10 American adults.
Some of the most commonly used pain management billing codes include: 20610 – major joint/bursa – injection or aspiration of the pes anserine bursa, subacromial bursa, hip, trochanteric bursa, shoulder, or knee. 77002 – Fluoroscopic needle guidance (non-spinal) 20552 – Trigger point injection in one or two muscles.
