To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the two child codes of G31.0 that describes the diagnosis 'frontotemporal dementia' in more detail.
F02.81 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. Short description: Dementia in oth diseases classd elswhr w behavioral disturb.
The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM F03 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of F03 - other international versions of ICD-10 F03 may differ.
It is manifested with personality changes and deterioration of the language skills. The most common clinical form of frontotemporal lobar degeneration, this dementia presents with personality and behavioral changes often associated with disinhibition, apathy, and lack of insight.
Frontotemporal dementia is an uncommon type of dementia that causes problems with behaviour and language. Dementia is the name for problems with mental abilities caused by gradual changes and damage in the brain. Frontotemporal dementia affects the front and sides of the brain (the frontal and temporal lobes).
Dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere without behavioral disturbance. F02. 80 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 F02.
In recent years, the term frontotemporal dementia has become an umbrella term referring to clinical syndromes of frontal dementia or progressive aphasia. An alternate term, frontotemporal lobar degeneration, relates to pathologies associated with the frontotemporal lobe dementia syndromes.

290.0 - Senile dementia, uncomplicated. ICD-10-CM.
Use of ICD-10-CM codes is required to distinguish between dementia without behavioral disturbances (F02. 80 - Dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere without behavioral disturbance) and dementia with behavioral disturbances (F02.
There are three types of frontotemporal disorders (FTD): behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), primary progressive aphasia (PPA), and movement disorders.
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is one of the less common types of dementia. It is sometimes called Pick's disease or frontal lobe dementia. The first noticeable FTD symptoms are changes to personality and behaviour and/or difficulties with language.
While Alzheimer's disease generally affects most of the brain, frontotemporal dementia primarily affects the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain – the areas generally associated with personality and behaviour.
G30. 9 – Alzheimer's disease, unspecifiedICD-10 also offers secondary codes to distinguish between dementia without behavioral disturbances. For example, F02. 80 Dementia in other diseases classified elsewhere without behavioral disturbance should be used to distinguish from dementia with behavioral disturbance – F02.

Dementia (290.0–290.4) Alzheimer's (331.0) Mild cognitive impairment (331.83) Memory loss not specified elsewhere (780.93)
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) or frontotemporal degenerations refers to a group of disorders caused by progressive nerve cell loss in the brain's frontal lobes (the areas behind your forehead) or its temporal lobes (the regions behind your ears).
The most common signs of frontotemporal dementia involve extreme changes in behavior and personality. These include: Increasingly inappropriate social behavior. Loss of empathy and other interpersonal skills, such as having sensitivity to another's feelings.

Pick's disease is a specific type of frontotemporal dementia (FTD), a degenerative brain disease that happens most commonly in people under age 65. In years past, Pick's disease was referred to as frontotemporal dementia itself. However, today, experts only use Pick's name when the condition meets certain criteria.
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the clinical presentation of frontotemporal lobar degeneration, which is characterized by progressive neuronal loss predominantly involving the frontal and/or temporal lobes, and typical loss of over 70% of spindle neurons, while other neuron types remain intact .

In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
