Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-Obstruction is a medical condition characterized by impaired movement of the intestines, leading to symptoms similar to a mechanical obstruction, but without any physical blockage. The ICD-10 code for this condition is K56.7. In the ICD-10 classification system, codes starting with "K" are used for diseases of the digestive system, and the number after the decimal point indicates a specific condition. In this case, "K56" refers to other and unspecified intestinal obstruction, and ".7" specifies the chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction.
In the previous ICD-9 classification system, Chronic Intestinal Pseudo-Obstruction was coded under 560.89. In ICD-9, codes starting with "560" are used for intestinal obstruction without hernia, and ".89" indicates other specified intestinal obstruction. However, it is important to note that the ICD-9 system is no longer in use and has been replaced by ICD-10. This transition occurred in the United States on October 1, 2015.
ICD codes are essential for medical billing, statistical analysis, and research purposes. They enable healthcare providers and insurance companies to accurately identify and classify diseases, facilitating appropriate treatment and reimbursement. Additionally, these codes help researchers and public health organizations track the prevalence and outcomes of specific conditions.
