About coding cervical dystonia
The ICD-10-CM code for cervical dystonia is G24.3 (Spasmodic torticollis).
Within G24 (dystonia), G24.3 is specifically for Spasmodic torticollis. Related codes cover drug induced dystonia (G24.0), genetic torsion dystonia (G24.1), idiopathic nonfamilial dystonia (G24.2), idiopathic orofacial dystonia (G24.4), Blepharospasm (G24.5), other dystonia (G24.8) and unspecified (G24.9).
Don't report G24.3 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: congenital torticollis (Q68.0), hysterical torticollis (F44.4), ocular torticollis (R29.891), psychogenic torticollis (F45.8) and 2 more.
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
Don't confuse with (Excludes1 for G24.3)
