ICD10 code of Cluster Headaches and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Cluster Headaches? And the ICD9 code for Cluster Headaches?
Cluster Headaches: The ICD-10 code for Cluster Headaches is G44.0. Cluster headaches are severe headaches that occur in cyclical patterns or clusters. They are characterized by intense pain on one side of the head, often accompanied by eye redness, tearing, and nasal congestion. These headaches can be debilitating and may last for weeks or months. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Cluster headaches, also known as histamine headaches, are a type of primary headache disorder characterized by recurrent, severe headaches that occur in clusters or patterns. The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) provides a specific code for cluster headaches, which is G44.0. This code falls under the category of "Other Trigeminal Autonomic Cephalalgias," which includes various headache disorders involving the trigeminal nerve.
In contrast, the previous edition of the classification system, ICD-9, had a different code for cluster headaches. The ICD-9 code for cluster headaches was 339.00, falling under the broader category of "Headache, Unspecified."
It is important to note that the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 occurred on October 1, 2015, and since then, healthcare providers and institutions have been using the ICD-10 coding system. This transition allowed for more specific and detailed coding, improving accuracy and enhancing the ability to capture specific diagnoses.
In summary, the ICD-10 code for cluster headaches is G44.0, while the corresponding ICD-9 code was 339.00. These codes assist healthcare professionals in accurately documenting and classifying cluster headaches for billing, research, and statistical purposes.

I do not know the codes ICD nine or ICD 10. I do know however that insurance only covers six doses of sumatriptan per month. So like a squirrel I gather all my doses during periods of remission that I’m entitled to so that I have an arsenal ready for when they return.
