| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

G36.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of acute and subacute hemorrhagic leukoencephalitis [Hurst]. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code G36 is used to code Demyelinating disease

A demyelinating disease is any disease of the nervous system in which the myelin sheath of neurons is damaged. This damage impairs the conduction of signals in the affected nerves. In turn, the reduction in conduction ability causes deficiency in sensation, movement, cognition, or other functions depending on which nerves are involved.

Other demyelinating diseases of central nervous system (approximate match)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code G36.1 and a single ICD9 code, 341.8 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
