The following list is offered for perspective on the myriad associations
to consider when caring for a child with persistent hearing impairment, particularly
when the etiology is, as yet, unknown. Information was compiled from Orphanet, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), and [Toriello: 2013] and previous editions.
Several of the
ICD-10 codes are not specific to the condition named but subsume that condition and
others. Some codes listed will need an extra digit or two (indicated by "x" and
"xx") to provide optimal specificity (for location, timing, severity, visit type,
etc.) – please consult ICD10Data.com, another ICD-10
reference, or a coding specialist if you intend to use these for billing purposes.
No ICD-10 code is listed when there are multiple options for coding or we couldn't
find one (if you know the code, please use the Feedback button at the top of the
page to let us know).
