ICD Code T63.0 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the nine child codes of T63.0 that describes the diagnosis 'toxic effect of snake venom' in more detail. A snakebite is an injury caused by the bite of a snake.
Check the “Venom” entry in the ICD-10-CM Table of Drugs and Chemicals to see more options. For a nonvenomous spider bite, the index points you to “Bite, by site, superficial, insect” (which you may not expect because spiders aren’t insects).
The ICD-10-CM index points you to L23.7 Allergic contact dermatitis due to plants, except food for poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac dermatitis. Watch for: In some cases, the dermatitis may spread and cause significant issues like skin infections.

In the ICD-10 Index, erythema migrans is linked to A26. 0 for cutaneous erysipeloid which seems to be another specific type of bacterial infection.
What Causes Erythema Migrans? Erythema Migrans is often the first sign of Lyme disease. Lyme disease is caused by the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi. The bacteria are transmitted to humans through infected deer ticks.
ICD-10 code: I63. 9 Cerebral infarction, unspecified.
Obstruction in blood flow (ischemia) to the brain can lead to permanent damage. This is called a cerebrovascular accident (CVA). It is also known as cerebral infarction or stroke. Rupture of an artery with bleeding into the brain (hemorrhage) is called a CVA, too.
Coding Guidelines Residual neurological effects of a stroke or cerebrovascular accident (CVA) should be documented using CPT category I69 codes indicating sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. Codes I60-67 specify hemiplegia, hemiparesis, and monoplegia and identify whether the dominant or nondominant side is affected.
A snakebite is an injury caused by the bite of a snake. It often results in two puncture wounds from the animal's fangs. Sometimes poisoning from the bite may occur. This may result in redness, swelling, and severe pain at the area, which may take up to an hour to appear. Vomiting, trouble seeing, tingling of the limbs, and sweating may result.
This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code T63.013A and a single ICD9 code, E962.1 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the nine child codes of T63.0 that describes the diagnosis 'toxic effect of snake venom' in more detail. T63.0 Toxic effect of snake venom. NON-BILLABLE. T63.00 Toxic effect of unspecified snake venom. NON-BILLABLE.
It often results in two puncture wounds from the animal's fangs. Sometimes poisoning from the bite may occur. This may result in redness, swelling, and severe pain at the area, which may take up to an hour to appear. Vomiting, trouble seeing, tingling of the limbs, and sweating may result. Most bites are on the hands or arms. Fear following a bite is common with symptoms of a racing heart and feeling faint. The venom may cause bleeding, kidney failure, a severe allergic reaction, tissue death around the bite, or breathing problems. Bites may result in the loss of a limb or other chronic problems. The outcome depends on the type of snake, the area of the body bitten, the amount of venom injected, and the health conditions of the person. Problems are often worse in children than adults.
When a patient presents with an insect bite or spider bite, you have a few issues to consider before you choose your final code. You’ll find the ICD-10-CM Index to Diseases and Injuries is a smart place to start your search. The index entry for “Bite (s) (animal) (human)” has many subentries based on site, such as ankle.
Summer clothing and outdoor adventures may add up to increased contact with rash-causing plants. The ICD-10-CM index points you to L23.7 Allergic contact dermatitis due to plants, except food for poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac dermatitis. Watch for: In some cases, the dermatitis may spread and cause significant issues like skin infections.
The ICD-10-CM index has a long list of subentries under “Heat (effects).” Most of them fall under T67.- Effects of heat and light, but there are a few exceptions.
