Hi,

I'm wondering about coding for patients with Huntington's Disease. Would you consider the following diagnoses inherent in the disease process and so they wouldn't be coded (besides G10)?

- F91.9 conduct disorder
- F69 unspecified disorder of adult personality and behavior
- F63.89 other impulse disorders
- F63.9 impulse control disorder NOS


Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
