G37

Other demyelinating diseases of central nervous system

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 8 more specific codes instead:

  • G37.0 Diffuse sclerosis of central nervous system
  • G37.1 Central demyelination of corpus callosum
  • G37.2 Central pontine myelinolysis
  • G37.3 Acute transverse myelitis in demyelinating disease of central nervous system
  • G37.4 Subacute necrotizing myelitis of central nervous system
  • G37.5 Concentric sclerosis [Balo] of central nervous system
  • G37.8 Other specified demyelinating diseases of central nervous system (also a header)
  • G37.9 Demyelinating disease of central nervous system, unspecified

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
