A focal neurologic deficit is a problem with nerve, spinal cord, or brain function. It affects a specific location, such as the left side of the face, right arm, or even a small area such as the tongue. Speech, vision, and hearing problems are also considered focal neurological deficits.
The American Heart Association/American Stroke Association definition of TIA was used: brief episode of neurologic dysfunction caused by focal brain, spinal cord, or retinal ischemia, with clinical symptoms typically lasting less than 1 hour and without evidence of acute infarction.

Aetna considers auditory brainstem implant for the treatment of congenital deafness and tinnitus experimental and investigational because its effectiveness for these indications has not been established .
The implant relays the signals to an electrode placed on the brainstem near the severed auditory nerve; the signals stimulate the brainstem and can be interpreted by the brain in a manner similar to the interpretation of signals normally received from the ear.
A cochlear implant is an electronic device that can provide improved speech and hearing communication abilities for people who have severe to profound hearing loss in both ears. The implant is surgically placed under the skin behind the ear. It generally consists of four parts: a microphone, which picks up sound from the environment; a speech processor, which is worn externally or carried and arranges the sound transmitted by the microphone; a receiver/stimulator that receives signals from the speech processor and converts them into electrical impulses; and electrode (s), which collects the impulses from the stimulator and sends them to the brain.
Medicare considers as prosthetics " [c]ochlear implants and auditory brainstem implants, i.e., devices that replace the function of cochlear structures or auditory nerve and provide electrical energy to auditory nerve fibers and other neural tissue via implanted electrode arrays".
Moderate severe to profound mid to high frequency hearing loss (threshold average of 2000, 3000, and 4000 Hz greater than or equal to 60 dB HL) in the contralateral ear; and
Aetna considers an auditory brainstem implant (ABI) medically necessary in members 12 years of age or older who have lost both auditory nerves due to disease (e.g., neurofibromatosis or von Recklinghausen's disease) or bilateral surgical removal of auditory nerve tumors is planned and is expected to result in complete bilateral deafness.
Aetna considers uniaural (monaural) or binaural (bilateral) cochlear implantation a medically necessary prosthetic for infants and children with bilateral sensorineural hearing impairment who meet all of the following criteria:

The hand and arm are represented just above the region for the face and the leg is represented medially, similar to the layout of the motor homunculus.
The primary sensory modalities usually are examined first. These include touch, proprioception, vibration, temperature, and pain. Abnormalities in these sensations may occur with any sensory syndrome (eg, peripheral nerve injury, radiculopathy, spinal cord syndromes, thalamic and cerebral hemispheric syndromes). A disproportionate loss of vibration sense and proprioception, compared with pain and temperature sensation, tends to occur with diseases of the dorsal columns of the spinal cord (eg, tabes dorsalis, vitamin B12 deficiency, multiple sclerosis) and also with demyelinating neuropathies and sensory neuronopathies. (See "Pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and treatment of late syphilis" and "Etiology and clinical manifestations of vitamin B12 and folic acid deficiency".)
Projections from the dorsal root ganglia that carry proprioceptive, vibratory, pressure, and touch stimuli directly enter the dorsal columns from the dorsal roots [1]. The gracile column is medial and carries stimuli from the lumbar and thoracic region; the cuneate column begins laterally in the cervical region, which it subserves. Thus, the dorsal columns consist of first order neurons traveling ipsilateral to the peripheral nerve from which they originate. These neurons synapse with second order neurons in the cuneate and gracile nuclei of the medulla. These second order neurons cross in the dorsal midline of the medulla and ascend through the brainstem as the medial lemniscus to the ventral posterolateral nucleus of the thalamus where they synapse with third order neurons which project through the internal capsule and the centrum semiovale to the primary sensory cortex in the parietal lobe (figure 2).
Hypesthesia is the diminished ability to perceive pain, temperature, touch, or vibration.

Z codes represent reasons for encounters. A corresponding procedure code must accompany a Z code if a procedure is performed. Categories Z00-Z99 are provided for occasions when circumstances other than a disease, injury or external cause classifiable to categories A00 -Y89 are recorded as 'diagnoses' or 'problems'. This can arise in two main ways:
Z96 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail.

These disorders are often associated with atrophy of the affected central or peripheral nervous system structures.
