ICD10 code of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity? And the ICD9 code for Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity?
Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity is a condition where individuals experience various symptoms attributed to exposure to electromagnetic fields. However, it is important to note that the World Health Organization does not recognize it as a medical diagnosis. As a result, there is no specific ICD-10 code for Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity. Similarly, there is no specific ICD-9 code for this condition either. It is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management of symptoms.
Electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS) is a condition where individuals experience a range of symptoms attributed to exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs). It is important to note that the World Health Organization (WHO) does not recognize EHS as a medical diagnosis, but rather a subjective phenomenon. Consequently, there is no specific ICD-10 code for EHS.
However, it is worth mentioning that some individuals with EHS may exhibit symptoms similar to other recognized conditions, such as anxiety or somatoform disorders. In these cases, healthcare professionals may assign relevant ICD-10 codes based on the specific symptoms presented by the patient.
As for the ICD-9 code, prior to the implementation of ICD-10, EHS did not have a specific code either. Similarly, healthcare providers may have assigned codes based on associated symptoms or conditions.
It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to properly evaluate and diagnose any symptoms related to EHS. They can provide appropriate guidance and support, as well as help to rule out any other underlying medical conditions that may be contributing to the symptoms experienced by the individual.

There are no such codes, because there is no medically recognized diagnosis for this so-called condition. Furthermore, it is not a recognized medical condition.

Yes, from the World Health Organization ICD-10 medical code W90.0 and W90.8
ICD-10 Medical Codes for Cause & Effect: EMF / RF Poisoning - World Health Organization [but not limited to - often includes injuries below and one or more of the following: nausea vomiting, seizures, body parts have sensation of burning and/or tingling; tinitus]:

Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS) and World Health Organization (WHO)1
PART 1: International Classification of Disease and Functioning
A. International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10)
B. International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF)
A. International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10): Classification of electromagnetic
hypersensitivity (EHS) requires two or more codes. (The WHO does not use the term
“Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity.” Rather they call it, “idiopathic environmental
intolerance (IEI) attributed to electromagnetic fields (EMF).”
EHS or IEI should be classified under:
(1) Cause – Two codes are available for illness/injury resulting from exposure:
• W90.0 for exposure to radiofrequency radiation (RFR). Note this includes
intermediate frequencies (IF) that flow along wires, microwave radiation
(MWR) as well as millimeter waves (mmW).
• W90.8 for exposure to other non-ionizing radiation, for example extremely
low frequency (ELF) electric and magnetic fields (EMF) and ground
current. http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/W90
(2) Effects – various classifications are available for the illnesses/injuries caused by the
exposure to EMF radiation, for example …[but not limited to - often includes below and one or more of the following: nausea vomiting, seizures, body parts have sensation of burning and/or tingling; tinitus]
• ICD-10 G43 for migraine:
http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/G43
• ICD-10 R42 for dizziness and giddiness:
http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/R42
• ICD-10 H93.1 for tinnitus:
http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/H93.1
B. International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF): ICF Checklist
– Version 2.1a, Clinician Form for disability benefits, ill-health pensions etc.
http://www.who.int/classifications/icf/icfchecklist.pdf?ua=1
You must state your disability in the presence of EMF radiation, e.g.:
• “my vision is so badly affected that it would be unsafe for me to take charge
of a group of 8 year olds while on a school trip in a busy city”,
• “my thoughts become so jammed in the presence of EMF Wi-Fi in the hospital
that it would be unsafe for me to administer drugs to my patients in hospital”

Further details:
PART 2: Activity Limitations & Participation Restrictions
• Activity is the execution of a task or action by an individual. Participation is
involvement in a life situation.
• Activity limitations are difficulties an individual may have in executing activities.
• Participation restrictions are problems an individual may have in involvement in
life situations.
• The Performance qualifier indicates the extent of Participation restriction by
describing the person’s actual performance of a task or action in his or her current
environment. Because the current environment brings in the societal context,
performance can also be understood as "involvement in a life situation" or "the lived
experience" of people in the actual context in which they live. This context includes
the environmental factors – all aspects of the physical, social and attitudinal world
that can be coded using the Environmental.
• The Performance qualifier measures the difficulty the respondent experiences in
doing things, assuming that they want to do them.
• The Capacity qualifier indicates the extent of Activity limitation by describing the
person’s ability to execute a task or an action. The Capacity qualifier focuses on
limitations that are inherent or intrinsic features of the person themselves. These
limitations should be direct manifestations of the respondent's health state, without
the assistance. By assistance we mean the help of another person, or assistance
provided by an adapted or specially designed tool or vehicle, or any form of
environmental modification to a room, home, workplace etc. The level of capacity
should be judged relative to that normally expected of the person, or the person's
capacity before they acquired their health condition.
PART 3: Environmental Factors
• Environmental factors make up the physical, social and attitudinal environment in
which people live and conduct their lives.
• Qualifier in environment, Barriers or facilitator:
0 No barriers 0 No facilitator
1 Mild barriers +1 Mild facilitator
2 Moderate barriers +2 Moderate facilitator
3 Severe barriers +3 Substantial facilitator
4 Complete barriers +4 Complete facilitator

This information is on the two safe tech sites I built after injury:
EHS or IEI should be classified under:
(1) Cause – Two codes are available for illness/injury resulting from exposure:
• W90.0 for exposure to radiofrequency radiation (RFR). Note this includes intermediate frequencies (IF) that flow along wires, microwave radiation (MWR) as well as millimeter waves (mmW).
• W90.8 for exposure to other non-ionizing radiation, for example extremely low frequency (ELF) electric and magnetic fields (EMF) and ground current. http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/W90
(2) Effects – various classifications are available for the illnesses/injuries caused by the exposure to EMF radiation, for example …
• ICD-10 G43 for migraine: http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/G43
• ICD-10 R42 for dizziness and giddiness: http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/R42
• ICD-10 H93.1 for tinnitus: http://apps.who.int/classifications/icd10/browse/2010/en#/H93.1
I don't see any ICD9 codes
