re: Need a diagnosis code.
You should consider several diagnosis codes. You could use 780.50, for sleep disturbance, unspecified, or 780.59, for other sleep disturbance. Some report 786.09 for snoring if the patient has UARS. Or you could report for an organic sleep disorder, not otherwise identified with code 327.8. Verify with physician,.
