Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. The ICD-10 code for ADHD is F90. The corresponding ICD-9 code for ADHD is 314.00. These codes are used for medical billing and classification purposes to identify and track the diagnosis of ADHD in healthcare settings.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that significantly impact an individual's functioning and development. In the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), ADHD is coded as F90.0 for the predominantly hyperactive-impulsive type, F90.1 for the predominantly inattentive type, and F90.2 for the combined type.
In the previous edition, the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision (ICD-9), ADHD was classified under the code 314.00. However, it's important to note that ICD-9 codes have been replaced by ICD-10 codes since October 1, 2015, in most countries, including the United States. The transition to ICD-10 allows for more detailed and accurate coding of various conditions, including ADHD.
It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional or a certified medical coder to ensure accurate coding and billing. Proper coding helps in tracking prevalence, research, and appropriate treatment of ADHD while facilitating communication among healthcare providers.
