2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code G20.A1 – Parkinson’s disease without dyskinesia, without mention of fluctuations

What it is

This code identifies Parkinson’s disease when the record does not mention dyskinesia or motor fluctuations. Use it for documented Parkinson’s disease without those specific complications.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include bradykinesia, resting tremor, rigidity, and postural instability. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Assign this code when the provider documents Parkinson’s disease and specifically states no dyskinesia and no fluctuations, or omits both complications in a way that supports this code. Use the diagnosis as recorded in the chart, not your assumptions.

Do not use for

Do not use it if dyskinesia or motor fluctuations are documented. Check documentation if the note describes a different parkinsonian disorder or does not clearly support Parkinson’s disease.

Coding tip

Match the code to the exact complication status in the provider’s note before finalizing.
