ICD10 code of Dysautonomia / POTS and ICD9 code

Dysautonomia, also known as Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), is a condition characterized by dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. This disorder affects various bodily functions such as heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and temperature regulation. In the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), the specific code for Dysautonomia/POTS is G90.9. This code falls under the category of "Other disorders of the autonomic nervous system."

In the previous version of the classification system, the ICD-9 code for Dysautonomia/POTS was 337.9. This code was classified under "Other and unspecified disorders of the autonomic nervous system." It is important to note that the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 occurred on October 1, 2015. Therefore, healthcare providers now primarily use the ICD-10 code for accurate diagnosis and appropriate billing purposes.

It is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to obtain an accurate diagnosis and appropriate coding for Dysautonomia/POTS. They will consider the specific symptoms, medical history, and diagnostic tests to determine the most appropriate code for this condition.
