The ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) is a system used by physicians and other healthcare providers to classify and code all diagnoses, symptoms and procedures recorded in conjunction with hospital care in the United States.
Why ICD-10 codes are important
ICD-10 code G82 for Paraplegia (paraparesis) and quadriplegia (quadriparesis) is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the nervous system .
The spastic quadriparesis ICD 10 code is G82. 50 and can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Item I5100, quadriplegia, "primarily refers to the paralysis of all four limbs (arms/legs) caused by spinal cord injury, period." CMS further indicated functional quadriplegia "refers to complete immobility due to severe physical disability or frailty." Conditions such as cerebral palsy, stroke, pressure ulcers, ...

Spastic quadriplegia cerebral palsy is a form of cerebral palsy that affects both arms and legs and often the torso and face. Quadriplegia is the most severe of the three types of spastic cerebral palsy. It requires lifelong treatment and support.[1]
Quadriplegia refers to paralysis from the neck down, including the trunk, legs and arms. The condition is typically caused by an injury to the spinal cord that contains the nerves that transmit messages of movement and sensation from the brain to parts of the body.
There are two types: Paraplegia—full or partial paralysis of the lower half of the body. Quadriplegia, sometimes called tetraplegia—paralysis of both legs and both arms.
Unlike quadriplegia — which is a full paralysis or inability to move all four limbs — quadriparesis is characterized by overall weakness in your arms and legs, but you can still feel and move your limbs. Quadriparesis can be caused by illness or injury.
Incomplete quadriplegia involves weakness or paralysis of all four limbs. Depending on the severity of the spinal cord injury, individuals may have residual movement. About 47% of all spinal cord injuries result in incomplete quadriplegia, making it the most common type of spinal cord injury.
Tetraplegia (sometimes referred to as quadriplegia) is a term used to describe the inability to voluntarily move the upper and lower parts of the body. The areas of impaired mobility usually include the fingers, hands, arms, chest, legs, feet and toes and may or may not include the head, neck, and shoulders.
An incomplete injury means that the ability of the spinal cord to convey messages to or from the brain is not completely lost. Additionally, some sensation (even if it's faint) and movement is possible below the level of injury.

The ICD-10 Code for Quadriplegia is G82.50.
Quadriplegia is paralysis caused by illness or injury that results in the partial or total loss of use of all four limbs and torso. The loss usually means that both sensation and control are lost. Muscles may be flaccid or spastic. Paralysis can be either partial, periodic, complete, or incomplete. Paralysis of both the arms and legs has traditionally been called quadriplegia. Quad comes from the Latin word for four and plegia comes from the Greek word for inability to move. Currently the term tetraplegia is becoming more popular, but it means the same thing. Tetra is from the Greek word for inability to move.
344.09 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of other quadriplegia. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
Paralysis is the loss of muscle function in part of your body. It happens when something goes wrong with the way messages pass between your brain and muscles. Paralysis can be complete or partial. It can occur on one or both sides of your body. It can also occur in just one area, or it can be widespread.
General Equivalence Map Definitions The ICD-9 and ICD-10 GEMs are used to facilitate linking between the diagnosis codes in ICD-9-CM and the new ICD-10-CM code set. The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.
S14.109A is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The short definition is unspecified injury at unspecified level of cervical spinal cord. The 2018 edition of ICD-10-CM S14.109A became effective on October 1, 2017.
There are 31 pairs of nerves that leave the spinal cord and go to your arms, legs, chest and abdomen. These nerves allow your brain to give commands to your muscles and cause movements of your arms and legs.
For example, signals from the spinal cord control how fast your heart beats and your rate of breathing. Injury to the spinal cord nerves can result in paralysis, affecting some or all of the aforementioned body functions. The result is a spinal cord injury.
Spinal cord injury is very different from back injuries, such as ruptured disks, spinal stenosis or pinched nerves.
