ICD-10-PCS Code	Description
GZ58ZZZ	Individual Psychotherapy, Cognitive-Behavioral

Typical Clinical Scenarios

A young adult admitted to the psychiatric unit after an acute suicide attempt with persistent depressive disorder and dysfunctional thought patterns; inpatient stabilization is required for safety and initiation of structured psychotherapy to modify maladaptive cognitions and coping strategies, so one-on-one cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy is provided during the hospitalization to reduce suicide risk and build skills for discharge. Typical codes: GZ58ZZZ
An adult with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder who is hospitalized electively for an intensive treatment program because outpatient therapy failed to achieve symptom control; during the inpatient stay the patient receives scheduled individual cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy sessions focused on exposure and response prevention and cognitive restructuring to reduce compulsions and improve functioning. Typical codes: GZ58ZZZ
An older adult with acute exacerbation of generalized anxiety disorder and marked impairment in daily functioning after a medical illness, requiring inpatient care for symptom management and rehab coordination; individual cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy is delivered to address catastrophic thinking, support engagement in rehabilitation, and prepare a safe discharge plan. Typical codes: GZ58ZZZ
