R13. 11, Dysphagia, oral phase.
Dysphagia, pharyngoesophageal phase R13. 14 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 R13. 14 became effective on October 1, 2021.

Oral dysphagia refers to problems with using the mouth, lips and tongue to control food or liquid. Pharyngeal dysphagia refers to problems in the throat during swallowing. Dysphagia may lead to aspiration (where food or liquid gets into the lungs). Dysphagia can affect a person at any age, from infants to the elderly.
Dysphagia is the medical term for swallowing difficulties. Some people with dysphagia have problems swallowing certain foods or liquids, while others can't swallow at all. Other signs of dysphagia include: coughing or choking when eating or drinking.
A videofluoroscopy assesses your swallowing ability. It takes place in the X-ray department and provides a moving image of your swallowing in real time. You'll be asked to swallow different types of food and drink of different consistencies, mixed with a non-toxic liquid called barium that shows up on X-rays.
Esophageal dysphagia: This is a problem of the esophagus. This can be caused when something blocks or compresses the esophagus, there's a muscular disorder or there are pouches in the esophagus.
Food in respiratory tract, part unspecified causing asphyxiation, initial encounter. T17. 920A 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 T17.

ICD-10 code K20. 9 for Esophagitis, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the digestive system .
787.20 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of dysphagia, unspecified. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
7th Characters - Certain ICD-10-CM categories have applicable 7th characters. The applicable 7th character is required for all codes within the category, or as the notes in the Tabular List instruct. The 7th character must always be the 7th character in the data field. If a code that requires a 7th character is not 6 characters, a placeholder X must be used to fill in the empty characters.
If you have a swallowing disorder, you may have difficulty or pain when swallowing. Some people cannot swallow at all. Others may have trouble swallowing liquids, foods, or saliva. This makes it hard to eat. Often, it can be difficult to take in enough calories and fluids to nourish your body.
Code first , if applicable, dysphagia due to late effect of cerebrovascular accident ( 438.82)
A disorder characterized by difficulty in swallowing. A symptom referring to difficulty in swallowing. It may be observed in patients with stroke, motor neuron disorders, cancer of the throat or mouth, head and neck injuries, parkinson disease, and multiple sclerosis. Difficulty in swallowing.
Difficulty in swallowing. Difficulty in swallowing which may result from neuromuscular disorder or mechanical obstruction. Dysphagia is classified into two distinct types: oropharyngeal dysphagia due to malfunction of the pharynx and upper esophageal sphincter; and esophageal dysphagia due to malfunction of the esophagus. Difficulty swallowing.

For dysphagia due to the late effects of cerebrovascular disease, SLPs should use 438.82 coupled with an additional code from the 787.20–787.29 series to identify the specific type of dysphagia, if appropriate.
92611 Motion fluoroscopic evaluation of swallowing function by cine or video recording (MBS)
Speech-language patho logists often call ASHA with questions on coding and reimbursement for services involving swallowing evaluation and treatment. The following questions and answers should provide guidance for the most common concerns.
Other CPT codes for physicians that include interpretation and report of an endoscopic instrumental assessment (92613, 92615, and 92617) are optional. These codes are used only by physicians who review the recordings to look for particular problems (e.g., a disease or anatomical abnormality) and prepare their own report. Interpretation and report writing by the SLP are included in the instrumental assessment codes.
The CPT®/HCPCS codes included in this Billing and Coding: Swallowing Studies for Dysphagia A56621 article will be subjected to "procedure to diagnosis" editing. The following lists include only those diagnoses for which the identified CPT®/HCPCS procedures are covered. If a covered diagnosis is not on the claim, the edit will automatically deny the service as not medically necessary.
CPT ® codes 70370, 70371 and 74230 describe the complete procedure and should not be billed more than one time per patient on the same date of service. Only one of the above codes should be billed per patient on the same date of service.
Note: Providers are reminded to refer to the long descriptors of the C PT ® codes in their CPT ® book. The American Medical Association (AMA) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) require the use of short CPT ® descriptors in policies published on the Web.
