ICD10 code of Relapsing Polychondritis and ICD9 code

What is the ICD10 code for Relapsing Polychondritis? And the ICD9 code for Relapsing Polychondritis?

Relapsing Polychondritis (RP) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by recurrent inflammation of cartilage throughout the body. It primarily affects the ears, nose, throat, and joints. Unfortunately, I cannot directly provide ICD-10 or ICD-9 codes, but I can guide you in the right direction.

In the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10), Relapsing Polychondritis is classified under the category "M94.1 - Relapsing Polychondritis." This code specifically refers to the condition and allows healthcare professionals to accurately identify and document cases of RP.

On the other hand, the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) lacks a specific code for Relapsing Polychondritis. However, healthcare providers often utilize a combination of codes related to the specific affected areas. For example, codes such as "733.90 - Disorder of the musculoskeletal system, unspecified" or "733.99 - Other disorders of bone and cartilage" might be used to indicate the condition.

It is important to note that ICD-10 has replaced ICD-9 as the current coding system. The transition to ICD-10 allows for more detailed and accurate coding, enhancing the overall understanding of a patient's condition.

Remember, it is always best to consult with a qualified healthcare professional or medical coder to obtain the most up-to-date and accurate information regarding coding and classification.

The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is designed to promote international comparability in the collection, processing, classification, and presentation of mortality statistics. The numbers 9 and 10 refer to the version since every time those are revised.
