ICD-10-PCS F15 Physical Rehabilitation and Diagnostic Audiology: Diagnostic Audiology Vestibular Assessment
The ICD-10-PCS root operation Vestibular Assessment (code F15) involves testing and evaluating the vestibular system to assess balance and spatial orientation. This operation falls under the Physical Rehabilitation and Diagnostic Audiology section and is used to identify vestibular dysfunction or balance disorders.
Examples of this operation include various specialized assessments such as the Bithermal, Binaural Caloric Irrigation Assessment (codes F15Z08Z and F15Z0ZZ), which stimulates the inner ear to evaluate vestibular response. Other codes cover related tests like the Dix-Hallpike Dynamic Assessment (codes F15Z58Z and F15Z5ZZ), used to diagnose positional vertigo, and Computerized Dynamic Posturography (codes F15Z68Z and F15Z6ZZ), which analyzes balance control using specialized equipment. Additionally, the Tinnitus Masker Assessment (codes F15Z75Z and F15Z7ZZ) evaluates tinnitus management through hearing aid devices. These detailed codes reflect the variety of approaches and equipment used in vestibular and auditory assessments within diagnostic audiology.
