G14Postpolio syndrome

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

G14 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for postpolio syndrome. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

  • sequelae of poliomyelitis (B91)

Includes

Conditions this code covers.

  • postpolio myelitic syndrome

Other codes that can never be billed with G14

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at G14. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading G14 alone.

  • M89.6Osteopathy after poliomyelitis
  • B91Sequelae of poliomyelitis

Risk adjustment

G14 risk-adjusts. Under the CMS-HCC V28 model it maps to this category:

  • HCC 182 Spinal Cord Disorders/Injuries0.478 RAF

Coefficient shown for the Community Non-dual Aged segment. A higher HCC in the same hierarchy will suppress this one, so capturing it does not always add score.

Medicare coverage

G14 is named in 19 Medicare coverage policies 19 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.

How G14 is indexed
