Bladder-neck obstruction
This is the American ICD-10-CM version of O02.0 - other international versions of ICD-10 O02.0 may differ. O02.0 is applicable to maternity patients aged 12 - 55 years inclusive.
Code assignment starts with the index along with medical record documentation as to the cause of the intestinal obstruction. There are also entries for “partial” or “complete” intestinal obstruction, so the coder will need to look for that documentation.
Other obstructive and reflux uropathy 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Billable/Specific Code N13.8 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM N13.8 became effective on October 1, 2020.
For such conditions, ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code.
Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) is a blockage at the base of the bladder. It reduces or stops the flow of urine into the urethra. The urethra is the tube that carries urine out of the body.
Code N40. 1 is the diagnosis code used for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia with Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms, also called benign enlargement of the prostate (BEP or BPE). It is a benign (noncancerous) increase in size of the prostate.
Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) is when the neck at the very bottom of your bladder gets blocked. The neck is where your bladder connects to your urethra, which carries urine (pee) out of your body. A blockage stops or slows down the flow of pee.
A group of acute infections caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 or type 2 that is characterized by the development of one or more small fluid-filled vesicles with a raised erythematous base on the skin or mucous membrane. It occurs as a primary infection or recurs due to a reactivation of a latent infection.
A benign (not cancer) condition in which an overgrowth of prostate tissue pushes against the urethra and the bladder, blocking the flow of urine. Also called benign prostatic hyperplasia and BPH.
D29. 1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM D29. 1 became effective on October 1, 2021.
BPH results in benign prostatic enlargement (BPE) in some, but not all men. This enlargement can, in turn, lead to benign prostatic obstruction (BPO) and bladder outlet obstruction (BOO).
Monopolar transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) remains the gold standard treatment for the surgical management of BPH and bladder outflow obstruction (BOO).
N32. 0 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM N32.
ICD-10 code B00. 1 for Herpesviral vesicular dermatitis is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Certain infectious and parasitic diseases .
Listen to pronunciation. (HER-peez SIM-plex VY-rus) A type of virus that causes herpes infections and has DNA as its genetic material. There are two types of herpes simplex viruses.
When there is a condition in which the bowel does not work correctly, but there is no structural problem causing it, it is called “ileus.”. We are going to talk about mechanical bowel obstruction in this coding tip. Mechanical bowel obstruction can be caused by a number of conditions. Some of the most common causes are:
Mechanical bowel obstruction can be caused by a number of conditions. Some of the most common causes are: 1 Adhesions or scar tissue that forms after surgery 2 Foreign bodies (objects that are swallowed and block the intestines) 3 Gallstones (rare) 4 Hernias 5 Impacted stool 6 Intussusception (telescoping of one segment of bowel into another) 7 Tumors blocking the intestines 8 Volvulus (twisted intestine)
In the past, bowel obstruction was almost always coded as a diagnosis as the physician usually addressed the condition and did work up as to the cause, many times addressing the cause also. However that has changed as the coder will see in this coding tip.
The term “postoperative’ can be misleading. A query may be necessary. Take Aways. Coders must be aware of the index entries for intestinal obstruction and follow the index. For conditions in the index, look for “with obstruction” underneath the main entry or subterm entries.
Lastly, if intestinal obstruction is a complication of surgery, code K91.3-, may be warranted. Coders must validate that this is truly intestinal obstruction as a complication of surgery, and not just occurring after surgery due to another cause. The term “postoperative’ can be misleading. A query may be necessary.
In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
N40.1 is applicable to adult patients aged 15 - 124 years inclusive. N40.1 is applicable to male patients. Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology.
