Use ICD 9 code 797 "senility without mention of psychosis" other terms under this umbrella are frailty, old age, senescence, senile asthenia, senile debility, senile exhaustion. Having rarely used this diagnosis myself, I'm not sure whether you'd get paid by medicare for a charge using this just this diagnosis.
