F80.2 diagnosis code: Mixed receptive-expressive language disorder
The F80.2 is an ICD code that's included in the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM), and it is used to designate “Mixed receptive-expressive language disorder.”
When a person has a language disorder, that means they have trouble when it comes to communicating. The troubles that a person may face if they have language disorders include having difficulty speaking, like incorrectly saying sounds, stuttering, or saying things intelligibly. Some may have trouble understanding speech or other forms of communication.
In the context of this diagnosis code, a person is dealing with a mixture of receptive and expressive language disorders. This mixture can potentially be a pervasive developmental disorder.
