Myasthenia Gravis ICD-10-CM Codes

A myasthenia gravis ICD code is used when a patient presents with signs of impaired communication at the myoneural junction and muscle, such as fluctuating muscle weakness or fatigue, and is diagnosed with myasthenic syndromes based on clinical and neurological assessments. It falls under nervous system disorders, specifically gravis and other myoneural disorders.

Yes, myasthenia gravis diagnoses are billable, which allows for reimbursement when properly documented and supported by medical evidence.

Treatments include acetylcholinesterase inhibitors, immunosuppressive therapy, plasmapheresis, IVIG, and thymectomy—all targeting symptoms related to the myoneural junction and muscle. Supportive care and monitoring are essential for preventing complications like myopathy not elsewhere classified.
