Study Notes
ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes
- Fever: R50.9 is the diagnosis code for unspecified fever.
- Chronic Non-Intractable Common Migraine Headache with Status Migrainosus: G43.701 refers to this specific type of migraine.
- Otitis Media Left Ear: H66.92 is designated for left-sided otitis media; additional characters may be required for complete coding.
- Epigastric Pain: R10.13 categorizes pain in the epigastric region.
- Acute Asthma Exacerbation: J45.901 is the code for acute asthma exacerbation; additional coding for tobacco exposure may be needed.
- Acute Myocardial Infarction: I21.9 is assigned for acute myocardial infarction, typically involving duration of symptoms.
- Hypertensive Heart Disease: I11.9 is the code for hypertensive heart disease; potential tobacco use need additional coding.
- Syncope: R55 represents syncope in the ICD-10-CM coding.
- Nausea and Vomiting: R11.2 is the code for nausea accompanied by vomiting; both terms are addressed in coding.
- GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease): K21.9 is used for GERD, either by acronym or full term.
- Chlamydial Inflammation of the Testes: A56.19 includes chlamydial orchitis; the condition’s specifics are verified in the Tabular List.
- Sickle-Cell Anemia: D57.1 indicates sickle-cell anemia and may require additional coding for associated fever.
- Ruptured Spleen (Non-Traumatic): D73.5 covers nontraumatic spleen rupture.
- Cellulitis of the Arm: L03.119 is used for unspecified cellulitis of the upper limb.
- Chest Mass: R22.2 is the assigned code for a mass located in the chest.
- Novel H1N1 Flu: J10.1 represents the H1N1 influenza diagnosis and may require additional coding for other conditions.
- Uncontrolled Diabetes with Diabetic Cataracts: E11.36 is assigned for this combination; control status is non-factor.
- Left Outer Cheek Abrasion (Initial Encounter): S00.81XA includes initial encounter coding for cheek abrasion.
- Acute Cholecystitis with Chronic Cholecystitis: K81.2 combines the conditions into a single code.
- Right Eyebrow Laceration (Subsequent Encounter): S01.111D reflects the initial condition and its subsequent treatment.
Key Concepts in ICD-10-CM
- ICD-10-CM stands for the International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision, Clinical Modification.
- New ICD-10-CM updates occur annually in October.
- When both acute and chronic conditions exist, such as in coding guidelines, always sequence the acute condition first.
- Eponym Example: Paget's Disease, named after Sir James Paget.
- Default Code: The code next to a main term in the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index signifies the most common associated condition.
- Combination Code Example: K80.00 recognizes conditions like gallbladder calculus and acute cholecystitis.
- Sequencing Codes: For conditions with various symptoms, the relevant codes are sequenced correctly based on clinical guidelines.
- NEC (Not Elsewhere Classifiable) designates conditions lacking a specific code but categorized under a general heading.
Reporting Guidelines
-
Report both the condition and the symptoms until a definitive diagnosis is established.
-
Always reference and verify codes in the Tabular List as coding accuracy is pivotal.
-
Report the main condition for procedures, even if subsequently canceled due to contraindications.
-
Treatment Examples: For ailments like muscle weaknesses or infections, appropriate codes are assigned based on clinical findings and history.### Diagnosis Codes Summary
