The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) code group B91 includes diagnoses for late effects and sequelae of prior poliomyelitis, such as residual motor weakness, limb deformities, and post-polio functional limitations. These ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used to document chronic neurological and musculoskeletal impairments following acute poliovirus infection, capturing disease severity, affected body regions, and ongoing clinical complexity. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-CM B91 group supports proper claim adjudication, complete clinical documentation, and appropriate reimbursement.
