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

Submit one of these 6 more specific codes instead:

  • G60.0 Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy
  • G60.1 Refsum's disease
  • G60.2 Neuropathy in association with hereditary ataxia
  • G60.3 Idiopathic progressive neuropathy
  • G60.8 Other hereditary and idiopathic neuropathies
  • G60.9 Hereditary and idiopathic neuropathy, 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.
