G62.89 — Other specified polyneuropathies
Is G62.89 billable?
Yes, but G62.89 is an unspecified code. G62.89 is a valid, billable ICD-10-CM code for encounters from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027. However, G62.89 is an unspecified or catch-all code. Payers apply additional scrutiny to unspecified codes and many deny them when the medical record supports a more specific option, so check the documentation before selecting G62.89 — the more specific alternatives are listed below.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from G60-G65
The conditions below can never be reported together with G62.89 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 6
The conditions below are not part of G62.89, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, G62.89 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)
