ICD-10-CM Code for Enterococcus as the cause of diseases classified elsewhere B95. 2.
ICD-10 code R78. 81 for Bacteremia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
81 - Sepsis due to Enterococcus.
To identify patients with possible Gram-negative bacteremia in the NPR, we used diagnoses of “septicemia/sepsis due to other Gram-negative organisms” (ICD-10 code A41. 5).
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.
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.
Enterobacter species are members of the ESKAPE group (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacter species), which are described as the leading cause of resistant nosocomial infections (7, 10, 11, 13,–20).
If septic shock is documented, A41. 9 and R65. 21 can be coded. It is important to note that the adjective septic in other instances, such as septic encephalopathy or septic emboli, does not mean that A41.
This might include ampicillin or vancomycin plus gentamicin or streptomycin. Researchers are investigating other antibiotics that might be more effective against E. faecalis....Other antibiotic options include:daptomycin.gentamicin.linezolid.nitrofurantoin.streptomycin.tigecycline.vancomycin.

Bacteremia – Code R78. 81 (Bacteremia). Septicemia – There is NO code for septicemia in ICD-10. Instead, you're directed to a combination 'A' code for sepsis to indicate the underlying infection, such A41.
A41. 51 (Sepsis due to Escherichia coli), and N39. 0 (Urinary tract infection, site not specified) would be reported as additional diagnoses.
