ICD-10 codes for Alzheimer Disease

The primary ICD-10-CM codes for alzheimer disease are G30, G30.9, G30.0. Across all sub-categories, 5 codes are grouped under alzheimer disease, with 4 marked as billable (specific enough for a medical claim).

There are 5 ICD-10-CM codes related to alzheimer disease. Of these, 4 are billable specific codes and 1 are non-billable header categories that organize the specific codes underneath them. Header codes cannot be reported on a claim by themselves.

Yes. 4 of the 5 ICD-10-CM codes for alzheimer disease are billable. Common examples include G30.0 (Alzheimer's disease with early onset); G30.1 (Alzheimer's disease with late onset); G30.8 (Other Alzheimer's disease). Code to the highest level of specificity supported by the documentation.

The most commonly used billable codes for alzheimer disease include: G30.0 (Alzheimer's disease with early onset); G30.1 (Alzheimer's disease with late onset); G30.8 (Other Alzheimer's disease). The correct code depends on the documented clinical presentation, including any complications, episode (acute / chronic), and laterality where applicable. Always code to the highest level of specificity supported by the clinical documentation.

No, G30 (Alzheimer's disease) is a non-billable header code. You need to use a more specific child code for billing purposes.

The ICD-10 codes for alzheimer disease map to at least 25 SNOMED CT concepts. Examples of SNOMED CT concept IDs in this group include 10532003, 105421000119105, 1156789004, 1156798001, 1156800008. SNOMED CT is a clinical terminology used in electronic health records; AutoICD's coding API returns SNOMED CT IDs alongside each ICD-10 code via the include_snomed=true flag.

The ICD-10 codes for alzheimer disease are linked to 5 UMLS CUIs in the National Library of Medicine's Metathesaurus. Sample CUIs include C0002395, C4290121, C0750901, C0494463, C0477364. UMLS CUIs unify the same concept across SNOMED CT, ICD-10, ICD-11, RxNorm, MeSH, and dozens of other source vocabularies.

Alzheimer Disease may also be referred to as: Alzheimer, Alzheimer's disease, Alzheimer dementia, AD. The same ICD-10-CM codes apply regardless of which term appears in the clinical documentation. Synonyms are surfaced by AutoICD's NER pass and mapped to the canonical ICD-10 family above.
