Unlike other neurologic disorders (eg, migraine and epilepsy), there is only a single ICD-10-CM code for PD, namely G20.22 The single, nonspecific code for PD cannot accurately capture motor fluctuations and dyskinesia that emerge with PD progression. Based on the limitations of a single ICD-10-CM code for PD, a 7-member panel (6 movement disorder ...
Based on this review, the panel recommends the ICD-10-CMcoding structure for PD be expanded to provide specificity to distinguish motor complications of dyskinesia and/or “OFF” episodes (Table 2; Figure 1). The proposed changes include delineating between individuals without dyskinesia or fluctuations (G20.01), without dyskinesia but with fluctuati...

Consequently, the prevalence of these symptoms and their effect on patients, caregivers, and the overall health care system is extremely difficult to screen, document, and track in a systemat...

The recommended changes to the I...
