Other and unspecified polyneuropathies (G62) ICD-10-CM
The G62 code range covers other and unspecified polyneuropathies with 9 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. 7 of them are billable and valid for claim submission in fiscal year 2027, and the category headers group them but cannot themselves be billed.

Clinical Terms in This Code Range
Definitions from the National Library of Medicine for conditions coded in the G62 range.
Alcoholic Neuropathy
A condition where damage to the peripheral nervous system (including the peripheral elements of the autonomic nervous system) is associated with chronic ingestion of alcoholic beverages. The disorder may be caused by a direct effect of alcohol, an associated nutritional deficiency, or a combination of factors. Clinical manifestations include variable degrees of weakness; ATROPHY; PARESTHESIAS; pain; loss of reflexes; sensory loss; diaphoresis; and postural hypotension. (From Arch Neurol 1995;52(1):45-51; Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1146)
Critical Illness Polyneuropathy
Polyneuropathy arising in intensive care unit patients. It is a common complication of severe sepsis and is thought to represent a neurologic manifestation of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS).
Drug-Induced Polyneuropathy
Polyneuropathy caused by exposure to a drug.
Polyneuropathies
Diseases of multiple peripheral nerves simultaneously. Polyneuropathies usually are characterized by symmetrical, bilateral distal motor and sensory impairment with a graded increase in severity distally. The pathological processes affecting peripheral nerves include degeneration of the axon, myelin or both. The various forms of polyneuropathy are categorized by the type of nerve affected (e.g., sensory, motor, or autonomic), by the distribution of nerve injury (e.g., distal vs. proximal), by nerve component primarily affected (e.g., demyelinating vs. axonal), by etiology, or by pattern of inheritance.
About the G62 Code Range
Polyneuropathies are disorders of the peripheral nervous system. G62 groups those linked to specific causes with other specified and unspecified polyneuropathies.
G62.0, G62.1, and G62.2 distinguish drugs, alcohol, and other toxic agents. Under other specified polyneuropathies, G62.81 identifies critical illness, G62.82 identifies radiation, and G62.89 covers other specified forms. G62.9 is unspecified polyneuropathy.
