G95.8 — Other specified diseases of spinal cord

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

G95.8 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other specified diseases of spinal cord. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes1 — never code together

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

neurogenic bladder NOS (N31.9)
neurogenic bladder due to cauda equina syndrome (G83.4)
neuromuscular dysfunction of bladder without spinal cord lesion (N31.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with G95.8

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at G95.8. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading G95.8 alone.

N31Neuromuscular dysfunction of bladder, not elsewhere classified
G83.4Cauda equina syndrome

Risk adjustment

G95.8 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

Code to one of these instead G95.8

2 child codes. Green means billable.

Codes that share G95. If G95.8 is not quite right, the correct code is usually one of these.
