There are other forms of this disease, and that is what they are assigned designations:
Acute gastritis. 2016 2017 2018 2019 Non-Billable/Non-Specific Code. K29.0 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM K29.0 became effective on October 1, 2018.
Typical symptoms of acute gastritis are stomachache, feeling full, bloating, gas and heartburn. In most cases, gastritis is caused by a bacterial infection or the use of certain pain medication.
Step 1: Search the Alphabetical Index for a diagnostic term. After identifying the term, note its ICD-10 code. Tip. The term you’re looking for might not be one of the main terms in the index, but it might be listed under one of those main terms. For instance, “Congenital cataract” is listed under “Cataract.”

Acute gastritis is a sudden inflammation or swelling in the lining of the stomach. It can cause severe and nagging pain. However, the pain is temporary and usually lasts for short bursts at a time.
The note in ICD-10 under codes B95-B97 states that 'these categories are provided for use as supplementary or additional codes to identify the infectious agent(s) in disease classified elsewhere', so you would not use B96. 81 as a primary diagnosis, but as an additional code with the disease listed first.

The Alphabetical Index of diagnostic terms (plus their corresponding ICD-10 codes) lists thousands of “main terms” alphabetically. Under each of those main terms, there is often a sublist of more-detailed terms—for instance, “Cataract” has a sublist of 84 terms. However, the Alphabetical Index doesn’t include coding instructions, which are in the Tabular List.
Example. The ICD-10 code H40.2232 represents bilateral chronic angle-closure glaucoma, moderate stage. Breaking that down, H40.22 represents chronic angle-closure glaucoma, the 3 in the sixth position indicates that it is bilateral, and the 2 in the seventh position represents that it is moderate stage.
Example. If the diagnosis is primary open-angle glaucoma, severe stage, in the right eye, submit H40.11X3. While some glaucoma codes require you to indicate laterality (using the sixth character), that’s not the case with H40.11. But you are required to indicate staging, which is done with the seventh character, so you need to use X as a placeholder.
Example. A patient presents with a complaint of pain in the right eye for two hours. A corneal abrasion is diagnosed. The code is S05.01 Injury of conjunctiva and corneal abrasion without foreign body, right eye. That code’s entry in the Tabular List instructs you to add a seventh character—A, D, or S. Since S05.01 is only five characters long, use X as a placeholder in the sixth position. In the seventh position, add A to indicate an initial encounter—S05.01XA. When the patient is seen in follow-up, use code S05.01XD. If the patient develops a recurrent erosion as a result of the abrasion, use code S05.01XS.
1 implementation of ICD-10, EyeNet is providing an overview of the five-step process for finding ICD-10 codes (see below), along with a series of subspecialty-specific Savvy Coders, starting next month with cataract.
Example. H11.1 Conjunctival degenerations and deposits has an Excludes2 note that lists H11.81 Pseudopterygium. This means that ICD-10 doesn’t include pseudopterygium as part of any condition represented by the H11.1- codes, but it is possible for a patient to have both at the same time—and if that’s the case with your patient, you would submit the relevant H11.1- code along with H11.81.
However, the Alphabetical Index doesn’t include coding instructions, which are in the Tabular List. The Tabular List of ICD-10 codes (plus their descriptors) is organized alphanumerically from A00.0 to Z99.89. It is divided into chapters based on body part or condition.
In outpatient care, the ICD code on medical documents is always appended with a diagnostic confidence indicator (A, G, V or Z): A (excluded diagnosis), G (confirmed diagnosis), V (tentative diagnosis) and Z (condition after a confirmed diagnosis).

As mentioned above, the erosive gastritis of the stomach (code according to ICD-10: К29.0) – this is a fairly common disease of the digestive tract characterized by the appearance on the mucosa of the large number of erosions (rounded formations red).
However, you must remember that chronic (Chr.) erosive gastritis (code according to ICD-10: К29.0) occurs virtually asymptomatic. It first visible manifestations can be spotting by vomiting and stool.
