    ICD-10-CM Code For Sequelae Of Leprosy: Group Overview

    The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) code group B92 includes conditions describing residual effects and late complications following leprosy, such as chronic skin changes, neuropathic deficits, and deformities. These ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used to document the presence of ongoing sequelae from prior Hansen disease, capturing disease-related disability, chronic nerve involvement, and structural impairments. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-CM B92 group supports proper claim adjudication, complete clinical documentation, and appropriate reimbursement.

    ICD-10-CM B92: Sequelae Of Leprosy Overview

    The diagnoses in this group represent the long-term consequences and residual conditions that persist after active Hansen disease has resolved. They primarily target integumentary and peripheral nerve sequelae, including deformities, neuropathic complications, and chronic skin changes. Accurate coding matters for complete clinical documentation and supports appropriate reimbursement for ongoing care of disability and rehabilitation needs.

    When to Use

    Use a code from this group when documenting ongoing manifestations that are directly attributable to previous Hansen disease rather than active infection. Codes in this group apply to clinical encounters for management, rehabilitation, or monitoring of persistent deficits resulting from prior leprosy.

    Typical Clinical Scenarios

    • An elderly patient with a history of treated leprosy presents to clinic with chronic numbness, clawing of the hand and ulceration over pressure points from prior nerve damage. The visit documents persistent neurological deficits and skin deformities attributable to prior infection rather than active Mycobacterium leprae, prompting assignment of a sequelae diagnosis to capture residual impairments. Typical codes: B92
    • A middle-aged patient is admitted from the emergency department for a nonhealing plantar ulcer over a neuropathic foot previously affected by leprosy; current workup shows no signs of active infection but ongoing tissue loss related to past nerve and tissue damage. The clinician records the ulcer as a complication of prior leprosy to explain chronic tissue breakdown and to guide multidisciplinary wound care and documentation. Typical codes: B92
    • A young adult presents to neurology for progressive peripheral sensory loss and muscle weakness years after successful antimicrobial therapy for leprosy; electrodiagnostic testing confirms chronic mononeuropathies consistent with prior infection. Because symptoms represent long-term residual deficits from the earlier disease rather than an acute infectious process, a sequelae diagnosis is assigned to reflect the chronic neurologic sequelae. Typical codes: B92
