ICD10 code of Small Fiber Neuropathy and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Small Fiber Neuropathy? And the ICD9 code for Small Fiber Neuropathy?
Small fiber neuropathy (SFN) is a disorder affecting the small nerve fibers in the peripheral nervous system. These fibers are responsible for transmitting sensory and autonomic signals, and when damaged, can lead to various symptoms such as pain, altered sensation, and autonomic dysfunction. In the International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10), the code for SFN is G60.9. This code falls under the broader category of "hereditary and idiopathic neuropathy," indicating that SFN can have both genetic and unknown causes.
In contrast, the older version of the classification system, ICD-9, includes several codes that can be used to describe small fiber neuropathy. These codes include 337.1, which denotes peripheral autonomic neuropathy, and 713.5, which represents neuropathy in hereditary and idiopathic conditions. However, it's important to note that ICD-9 codes are no longer actively used as the healthcare industry has transitioned to the more comprehensive ICD-10 coding system.
Overall, SFN is a condition with significant impact on patients' quality of life, and accurate coding helps healthcare professionals in diagnosing and managing this disorder effectively.
