ICD-10 code T78. 40XA for Allergy, unspecified, initial encounter is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes .
The ICD-10-CM code that should be filed in this situation is Z41. 1, "Encounter for cosmetic surgery."
Z51. 6 is the correct code for allergy injections.
ICD-10 code Z51. 81 for Encounter for therapeutic drug level monitoring is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
Coverage Guidance. Botulinum toxin injections are used to treat various focal muscle spastic disorders and excessive muscle contractions such as dystonia, spasms, twitches, etc. These drugs produce a presynaptic neuromuscular blockade by preventing the release of acetylcholine from the nerve endings.
Use CPT code 64646 when injecting 1 to 5 muscles and 64647 when injecting 6 or more muscles. Each code can only be used once per session.
CPT codes 95115 (single injection) and 95117 (multiple injections) reflect the professional administration (injection) of the allergenic extract, when the extract is not included in the code descriptor.
ICD-10 Code for Encounter for allergy testing- Z01. 82- Codify by AAPC.
Use CPT procedure codes 95115 (single injection) and 95117 (multiple injections) to report the allergy injection alone, without the provision of the antigen.
The patient's primary diagnostic code is the most important. Assuming the patient's primary diagnostic code is Z76. 89, look in the list below to see which MDC's "Assignment of Diagnosis Codes" is first.

Use secondary code (s) from Chapter 20, External causes of morbidity, to indicate cause of injury. Codes within the T section that include the external cause do not require an additional external cause code.
Hypersensitivity to an agent caused by an immunologic response to an initial exposure. Hypersensitivity; a local or general reaction of an organism following contact with a specific allergen to which it has been previously exposed and to which it has become sensitized.
An allergy is a reaction of your immune system to something that does not bother most other people. People who have allergies often are sensitive to more than one thing.
An inflammatory response to an exogenous environmental antigen or an endogenous antigen initiated by the adaptive immune system. [goc:jal, isbn:0781735149]

All noxious and unintended responses to a medicinal product related to any dose should be considered adverse drug reactions (from us fda 'guideline for industry, clinical safety data management: definitions and standards for expedited reporting').
It is essential to diagnose and code correctly for BOTOX®(onabotulinumtoxinA) therapy service(s) to help ensure timely and adequate reimbursement.
The most frequently reported adverse reactions following injection of BOTOX®for upper limb spasticity include pain in extremity, muscle weakness, fatigue, nausea, and bronchitis.
BOTOX® is indicated for the treatment of lower limb spasticity in adult patients to decrease the severity of increased muscle tone in ankle and toe flexors (gastrocnemius, soleus, tibialis posterior, flexor hallucis longus, and flexor digitorum longus).
In a study of blepharospasm patients who received an average dose per eye of 33 Units (injected at 3 to 5 sites) of the currently manufactured BOTOX, the most frequently reported adverse reactions were ptosis (21%), superficial punctate keratitis (6%), and eye dryness (6%).
64642 Chemodenervation of one extremity; 1-4 muscle(s) + 64643 Each additional extremity, 1-4 muscle(s) (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure) 64644 Chemodenervation of one extremity; 5 or more muscles + 64645 Each additional extremity, 5 or more muscles (List separately in addition to code for primary procedure)
Prophylactic antibiotics, except aminoglycosides, [see Drug Interactions (7.1)] should be administered 1-3 days pre-treatment, on the treatment day, and 1-3 days post-treatment to reduce the likelihood of procedure-related UTI.
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, the adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in clinical practice.
Adverse reactions that have been identified during postapproval use of BOTOX® are discussed in greater detail in Postmarketing Experience (Section 6.3 of the Prescribing Information).There have been spontaneous reports of death, sometimes associated with dysphagia, pneumonia, and/or other significant debility or anaphylaxis, after treatment with botulinum toxin. There have also been reports of adverse events involving the cardiovascular system, including arrhythmia and myocardial infarction, some with fatal outcomes. Some of these patients had risk factors including cardiovascular disease. The exact relationship of these events to the botulinum toxin injection has not been established.
BOTOX® is contraindicated in the presence of infection at the proposed injection site(s) and in patients who are hypersensitive to any botulinum toxin product or to any of the components in the formulation.
Treatment with BOTOX® and other botulinum toxin products can result in swallowing or breath ing difficulties. Patients with pre- existing swallowing or breathing difficulties may be more susceptible to these complications. In most cases, this is a consequence of weakening of muscles in the area of injection that are involved in breathing or oropharyngeal muscles that control swallowing or breathing (see Boxed Warning).
