ICD 10 CM Field Value
Diagnosis Code: B89
Description: Unspecified parasitic disease
  • Sequelae of infectious and parasitic diseases (B90-B94)
  • Note: Categories B90-B94 are to be used to indicate conditions in categories A00-B89 as the cause of sequelae, which are themselves classified elsewhere. The 'sequelae' include conditions specified as such; they also include residuals of diseases classifiable to the above categories if there is evidence that the disease itself is no longer present.
  • Codes from these categories are not to be used for chronic infections. Code chronic current infections to active infectious disease as appropriate.
  • Code first condition resulting from (sequela) the infectious or parasitic disease
