About G60
G60 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for hereditary and idiopathic neuropathy. It belongs to block G60-G65 (polyneuropathies and other disorders of the peripheral nervous system) and chapter 6 (diseases of the nervous system). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 6 subcodes must be used instead.
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: G60.0 (neuropathy), G60.1 (disease), G60.2 (ataxia), G60.3 (neuropathy), G60.8 (neuropathies) and G60.9 (unspecified).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
