G96

Other disorders 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 4 more specific codes instead:

  • G96.0 Cerebrospinal fluid leak (also a header)
  • G96.1 Disorders of meninges, not elsewhere classified (also a header)
  • G96.8 Other specified disorders of central nervous system (also a header)
  • G96.9 Disorder 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.
