G52Disorders of other cranial nerves

Not billable

Is G52 billable?

No — G52 is a non-billable header code. G52 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 7 billable codes beneath G52.

Excludes2 — not included here

The conditions below are not part of G52, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, G52 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • disorders of acoustic [8th] nerve (H93.3)
  • disorders of optic [2nd] nerve (H46, H47.0)
  • paralytic strabismus due to nerve palsy (H49.0-H49.2)

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from G50-G59

The conditions below can never be reported together with G52 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • current traumatic nerve, nerve root and plexus disorders - see Injury, nerve by body region
  • neuralgia NOS (M79.2)
  • neuritis NOS (M79.2)
  • peripheral neuritis in pregnancy (O26.82-)
  • radiculitis NOS (M54.1-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 6

The conditions below are not part of G52, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, G52 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P04-P96)
  • certain infectious and parasitic diseases (A00-B99)
  • complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
  • congenital malformations, deformations, and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
  • endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88)
  • injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88)
  • neoplasms (C00-D49)
  • symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R94)

What codes fall under G52? (7)

How long has G52 existed?

G52 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.

Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
