Wiki Cpt Code

[AACP2217]

Can anyone help me with a CPT code for "emetophobia", fear of vomiting? Thanks you all.

This is the diagnosis. I cannot help with a CPT code unless I know what was done.

I am so sorry I meant the diagnosis code, that's what I get for multi tasking. lol
I have looked this up several different ways and cannot come up with anything, and just curious what others are using for this. Thanks and sorry again for the misunderstanding.

Phobia dx

I would use 300.29 other isolated or specific phobias. No specific one for what you requested.

Thank you, I will try that.

Yes, I agree 300.29 is the appropriate diagnosis code. When ICD-10 is implemented, we will have specific codes for each diagnosis.
