Parkinson's dis with dyskinesia, w/o mention of fluctuations

This code identifies Parkinson's disease where the patient experiences involuntary, uncontrolled movements (dyskinesia) as a motor complication. It specifically applies when there is no documentation of motor fluctuations, such as "wearing off" or "on-off" phenomena.

Use this code for patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Parkinson's disease who are experiencing dyskinesia, and the provider's documentation does not specify the presence of motor fluctuations. Documentation should clearly state "Parkinson's disease with dyskinesia" and lack any mention of "on-off" states or "wearing off" of medication effects.

• Do not use this code if the documentation specifies motor fluctuations (e.g., "Parkinson's disease with dyskinesia and wearing off").
• Ensure the documentation clearly distinguishes dyskinesia from other Parkinsonian motor complications like tremor or bradykinesia.
• This code should be sequenced as a secondary diagnosis if the primary reason for the encounter is a complication or treatment related to the dyskinesia.
