About coding postures
The ICD-10-CM code for postures is F44.2 (Dissociative stupor).
Within F44 (dissociative and conversion disorders), F44.2 is specifically for dissociative stupor. Related codes cover dissociative amnesia (F44.0), dissociative fugue (F44.1), conversion disorder with motor symptom or deficit (F44.4), conversion disorder with seizures or convulsions (F44.5), conversion disorder with sensory symptom or deficit (F44.6), conversion disorder with mixed symptom presentation (F44.7), other dissociative and conversion disorders (F44.8) and dissociative and conversion disorder, unspecified (F44.9).
Don't report F44.2 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: catatonic stupor (R40.1) and stupor NOS (R40.1).
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of F44.2, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: catatonic disorder due to known physiological condition (F06.1), depressive stupor (F32, F33) and manic stupor (F30, F31).
