Bacteremia is the presence of bacteria in the blood, hence a microbiological finding. Sepsis is a clinical diagnosis needing further specification regarding focus of infection and etiologic pathogen, whereupon clinicians, epidemiologists and microbiologists apply different definitions and terminology.
Clinically, the physician may not be differentiating the diagnoses as two different things, even though coding does. Now, bacteremia is the principal diagnosis, it won't change your DRG, though it could certainly affect quality concerns and medical necessity.
81, Bacteremia, is a symptom code with an Exclude1 note stating it can't be used with sepsis and that additional documentation related to the cause of the infection, i.e., gram-negative bacteria, salmonella, etc., would be needed for correct code assignment.
Chapter-specific guidelines state, “First code for the underlying systemic infection, followed by R65. 21, septic shock. If the causal organism is not documented, assign code A41. 9, sepsis, unspecified organism, for the infection.
(Septic shock cannot occur without sepsis and severe sepsis being present). You would need to add codes for the underlying condition (local infection) as well as codes for the organ dysfunction resulting from the sepsis that support the presence of severe sepsis.
subcategory R65.2If the patient has severe sepsis, a code from subcategory R65. 2 should also be assigned as a secondary diagnosis.
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 B96.20 and a single ICD9 code, 041.49 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
The ICD code B96 is used to code Bacterial vaginosis. Bacterial vaginosis (BV), also known as vaginal bacteriosis or Gardnerella vaginitis, is a disease of the vagina caused by excessive growth of bacteria. Common symptoms include increased vaginal discharge that often smells like fish. The discharge is usually white or gray in color.
