As a mental health practitioner, billing is an important part of operating a private practice, center, or other level of care when documenting services for insurance purposes or using a superbill template. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), ICD codes:
“…serve a broad range of uses globally and provides critical knowledge on the extent, causes and consequences of human disease and death worldwide via data that is reported and coded with the ICD. Clinical terms coded with ICD are the main basis for health recording and statistics on disease in primary, secondary and tertiary care, as well as on cause of death certificates. These data and statistics support payment systems, service planning, administration of quality and safety, and health services research. Diagnostic guidance linked to categories of ICD also standardizes data collection and enables large scale research.”
In this post you will find common ICD-10 codes for mental health professionals in areas such as anxiety, depression, personality disorders, insomnia, developmental disorders, bipolar disorder, mood disorders, and more.
ICD and CPT Codes: How are They Different?
ICD codes and CPT codes differ in what they describe. CPT codes refer to the types of treatment being administered, while ICD codes refer to the condition or problem that treatment is trying to solve. Both ICD and CPT codes work hand in hand to quickly and accurately provide payors he necessary information for which services were provided (CPT Codes) and which conditions were treated (ICD Codes).
Below, you’ll find common ICD-10 codes for various mental health conditions and problems.
