G50-G59 — Nerve, nerve root and plexus disorders
Every ICD-10-CM code in this range and the PDGM clinical group CMS assigns to it, read from the CMS grouper crosswalk v07.1.26.
Codes in range
106
No clinical group
26
A period cannot be grouped from these.

CMS rejects these in the primary position.
Where these codes group
80 of the 106 codes in G50-G59 group to Neuro Rehabilitation. A further 26 are assigned no clinical group at all, which means a 30-day period cannot be grouped from them.
