An “other” code means that there are codes for some diagnoses, but there is not one specific for the patient's condition. In this case, the physician knows what the condition is, but there is no code for it. An “unspecified” code means that the condition is unknown at the time of coding.
According to ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting FY 2018, “unspecified codes are to be used when the information in the medical record is insufficient to assign a more specific code.” In my opinion, this can be the case with testing, when lab work or cultures do not support the more specific code.
