ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD), a medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO). It contains codes for diseases, signs and symptoms, abnormal findings, complaints, social circumstances, and external causes of injury or diseases.
ICD-10 was developed and published by the World Health Organization in 1994. The ICD code set is typically updated every 10 years. The US is the last industrialized nation to adopt ICD-10 for reporting diseases and injuries although used for mortality statistics since 1999.
Developmental disorder of speech and language, unspecified F80. 9 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 F80. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
ICD-10 code R47. 9 for Unspecified speech disturbances is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
2. F80. 2 — Mixed receptive-expressive language disorder.
F80. 9 - Developmental disorder of speech and language, unspecified. ICD-10-CM.
Articulation disorders: An articulation disorder is the inability to say certain speech sounds correctly beyond the age when the sound is typically learned. Speech sounds may be dropped, added, distorted or substituted.
Unspecified speech disturbances R47. 9 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 R47. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
CPT Code 92521: Evaluation of Speech Fluency This is one of the most important medical codes for speech therapists. It refers to the evaluation of speech fluency, specifically speech fluency disorders such as stuttering, cluttering, etc.
Speech sound disorders is an umbrella term referring to any difficulty or combination of difficulties with perception, motor production, or phonological representation of speech sounds and speech segments—including phonotactic rules governing permissible speech sound sequences in a language.
For example, for a child with no related medical condition but who has speech-language deficits, use code F80. 2, mixed receptive-expressive language disorder.
Developmental language disorder, or DLD for short, is a hidden but very common condition that means a child has difficulty using and/or understanding language. Children with DLD have language abilities that fall behind those of other children their age, even though they are often just as smart.
Encounter for screening for global developmental delays (milestones) Z13. 42 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
A child with a receptive language disorder has trouble understanding words that they hear and read. A child with an expressive language disorder has trouble speaking with others and expressing thoughts and feelings. Language disorders can have many possible causes, such as a brain injury or birth defect.
Childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) is a speech disorder in which a child's brain has difficulty coordinating the complex oral movements needed to create sounds into syllables, syllables into words, and words into phrases. Typically, muscle weakness is not to blame for this speech disorder.
An excludes2 note indicates that the condition excluded is not part of the condition it is excluded from but a patient may have both conditions at the same time. When an Excludes2 note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together.
An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together , such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition .
The ICD-10-CM has two types of excludes notes. Each note has a different definition for use but they are both similar in that they indicate that codes excluded from each other are independent of each other.
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder X should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th character of a code.
The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) is the official system to assign health care codes describing diagnoses and procedures in the United States (U.S). The ICD is also used to code and classify mortality data from death certificates.
ICD-10 was implemented on October 1, 2015, replacing the 9th revision of ICD (ICD-9).
SLPs practic ing in a health care setting, especially a hospital, may have to code disease s and diagnoses according to the ICD-10. Payers, including Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial insurers, also require SLPs to report ICD-10 codes on health care claims for payment.

Audiology and SLP related disorders have been culled from approximately 68,000 codes into manageable, discipline-specific lists. Updated lists are posted annually on October 1.
Please note that these documents were developed for the October 2015 transition and are no longer being updated. Please refer to current resources for new and revised codes.
Oropharyngeal dysphagia is when a patient has trouble swallowing and the issue involves the patient’s mouth and pharynx (the part of the throat behind the mouth). Symptoms are generally similar to those for the oral phase of dysphagia and include:
You may see the following causes of oropharyngeal dysphagia in the patient’s records: Zenker’s diverticulum, or pharyngoesop hageal diverticulum, where a small pouch forms and collects food particles in the throat. Neurological damage from a stroke, or brain or spinal cord injury.
Code R48.8 is used to capture language deficits as the first-listed diagnosis. It should only be used if an Audiologist has assigned the H93.25 code (Central auditory processing disorder (CAPD)) to a patient. If a diagnosis of CAPD has not been established by an Audiologist, use code F80.2 (mixed receptive-expressive language disorder, developmental) for an auditory processing deficit.
Code R13.11 describes difficulty swallowing. Dysphagia is when a patient’s food or liquids take more time and effort to move from their mouth to their stomach. Swallowing may be associated with pain or may not be possible. Dysphagia is more common in older adults. Symptoms include:
ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision) is a set of codes published by the World Health Organization (WHO) that are used to represent medical diagnoses. An ICD-10 code is assigned to every disease, infection, injury, disorder, and symptom. These codes are used for a variety of purposes, ...
Apraxia of speech, identified by code R48.2, is a neurological condition where the patient finds it difficult or impossible to move their mouth and tongue to speak. It should not be confused with aphasia, where the person’s inability to speak is due to a problem with understanding or using the words.
7. R47.1 — Dysarthria and anarthria. Dysarthria, described by code R47.1, is a speech deficit caused by issues with controlling the muscles involved with speech production. Anarthria is the most severe form, which results in the inability to produce articulate and clear speech. Vowel sounds, in particular, may be distorted.
A code 10 of the ICD-10 is assigned to R47. Those with silent speech disturbances are classified under the WHO categorise system, listed under symptoms, signs, and abnormal clinical and laboratory results – not elsewhere considered.
Code R48. The first and second diagnoses for language deficits are based on language disorders.
R 47 of the ICD-10-CM diagnoses. Assimilate other words with speech disturbances in 89.
F80 of the International Confederation of Harmonised Medical Codes, version 10.
R47. Diagnostic Codes include one of the following: 89, which is a billable coded code.
dysarthria and apraxia can also be classified as disorders of speech. Individuals with ataxia have a decreased level of communication skills because their parts of the brain are damaged. The muscles of the throat, tongue, face, or respiratory system become weak during development, putting pressure on them. Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder.
R 47 of the Code for ICD-10-CM is revised for 2022. The word islurred in a speech section of 80.
Specific developmental disorders are disorders in which development is delayed in one specific area or areas, and in which basically all other areas of development are not affected.
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.
