Tabular List NotesGuidance
Coding notes and annotation back-references applicable to this code.
Code First
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.

AHRQ’s CCSR groups this code into broader clinical categories.
Clinical InformationClinical
Toxic Polyneuropathy
polyneuropathy that is caused by exposure to toxins.Chronic Toxic Polyneuropathy
neuropathy affecting multiple nerves that is caused by prolonged exposure to toxic substances.
Patient EducationClinical
Peripheral Nerve Disorders
Nerves are like wires that carry messages back and forth between your brain and your body. Your peripheral nerves branch off from your brain and spinal cord and connect to all parts of your body, including your muscles and organs.

Questions About G62.2Overview
Is G62.2 (Other and unspecified polyneuropathies) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report polyneuropathy due to other toxic agents on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of G62.2?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, polyneuropathy due to other toxic agents converts to ICD-9-CM 357.7 (neurpthy toxic agent NEC). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
Footnotes
[1] Chronic - a chronic condition code indicates a condition lasting 12 months or longer and its effect on the patient based on one or both of the following criteria:
- The condition results in the need for ongoing intervention with medical products,treatment, services, and special equipment
- The condition places limitations on self-care, independent living, and social interactions.
