The ICD-10 code range for Influenza and pneumonia J09-J18 is medical classification list by the World Health Organization (WHO).
Primary influenza pneumonia manifests with persistent symptoms of cough, sore throat, headache, myalgia, and malaise for more than 3-5 days. The symptoms may worsen with time, and new respiratory symptoms, such as dyspnea and cyanosis, may appear.
Influenza due to identified novel influenza A virus ICD-10-CM J09. X2 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
J10. 1 Influenza with other respiratory manifestations, seasonal influenza virus identified. Influenzal: acute upper respiratory infection.
Pneumonia is the most common complication of the flu – and perhaps one of the most serious. According to the American Lung Association (ALA), pneumonia and influenza together rank as the eighth leading cause of death in the United States.
In adults, you can administer a pneumococcal vaccine (PCV15, PCV20, or PPSV23) during the same visit with influenza vaccination. Administer each vaccine with a separate syringe and, if feasible, at a different injection site. Annual influenza vaccination is important to help prevent the flu.
Many of the ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes include the manifestation — for example, J09. X2 – Influenza due to identified novel influenza A virus with other respiratory manifestations.
