G35.A
BillableRelapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
Relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis is the most common form of MS, characterized by periods of new or worsening symptoms (relapses) followed by periods of partial or complete recovery (remissions).
Coding Tips
- •This is the most common MS subtype; ensure documentation specifies relapsing-remitting rather than other MS types
- •Code any acute relapses or exacerbations with additional codes for neurological manifestations (vision loss, weakness, etc.)
