About G95

G95 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other and unspecified diseases of spinal cord. It belongs to block G89-G99 (other disorders of the 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 5 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: G95.0 (syringobulbia), G95.1 (myelopathies), G95.2 (compression), G95.8 (cord) and G95.9 (unspecified).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of G95, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: myelitis (G04.-).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
