2023 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G32.0
2023 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G32.0
Subacute combined degeneration of spinal cord in diseases classified elsewhere
2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Billable/Specific Code Manifestation Code
- G32.0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
- Short description: Subac comb degeneration of spinal cord in dis classd elswhr
- The 2023 edition of ICD-10-CM G32.0 became effective on October 1, 2022.
- This is the American ICD-10-CM version of G32.0 - other international versions of ICD-10 G32.0 may differ.
ICD-10-CM Coding Rules
- G32.0 describes the manifestation of an underlying disease, not the disease itself.
Applicable To- Dana-Putnam syndrome
- Sclerosis of spinal cord (combined) (dorsolateral) (posterolateral)
Code FirstCode First Help
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation. In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere." Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code. "In diseases classified elsewhere" codes are never permitted to be used as first listed or principle diagnosis codes. They must be used in conjunction with an underlying condition code and they must be listed following the underlying condition.

Type 1 ExcludesType 1 Excludes Help
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes. It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as G32.0. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.
