Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) is a form of interstitial lung disease where the small airways (bronchioles) and alveoli (tiny air sacs) become inflamed, leading to difficulty breathing and flu-like illness.Jan 25, 2021
Immune-mediated pneumonitis (IMP) is an uncommon but potentially fatal toxicity of anti–programmed death-1 (PD-1)/programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) therapy for non-small cell lung cancer. The purpose of study was to compare clinical and radiographic findings between IMP and pneumonia by pathogen.
Interstitial pulmonary disease, unspecified J84. 9 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 J84. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
J84.1Other interstitial pulmonary diseases with fibrosis The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM J84. 1 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of J84. 1 - other international versions of ICD-10 J84.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an umbrella term used for a large group of diseases that cause scarring (fibrosis) of the lungs. The scarring causes stiffness in the lungs which makes it difficult to breathe and get oxygen to the bloodstream. Lung damage from ILDs is often irreversible and gets worse over time.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common type of pulmonary fibrosis. It is a disease that causes scarring (fibrosis) of the lungs. The word "idiopathic" means it has no known cause. Scarring causes stiffness in the lungs and makes it difficult to breathe.
Interstitial lung disease ( ILD), also known as diffuse parenchymal lung disease ( DPLD), is a group of lung diseases affecting the interstitium (the tissue and space around the air sacs of the lungs).
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.
J84.9 is a billable diagnosis code used to specify a medical diagnosis of interstitial pulmonary disease, unspecified. The code J84.9 is valid during the fiscal year 2021 from October 01, 2020 through September 30, 2021 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.#N#The ICD-10-CM code J84.9 might also be used to specify conditions or terms like chronic interstitial lung disease, congenital nephrotic syndrome, interstitial lung disease, epidermolysis bullosa syndrome, disorder of connective tissue co-occurrent and due to systemic disease, idiopathic interstitial pneumonia, interstitial lung disease , interstitial lung disease due to collagen vascular disease, etc.#N#Unspecified diagnosis codes like J84.9 are acceptable when clinical information is unknown or not available about a particular condition. Although a more specific code is preferable, unspecified codes should be used when such codes most accurately reflect what is known about a patient's condition. Specific diagnosis codes should not be used if not supported by the patient's medical record.
Specific types include. Black lung disease among coal miners, from inhaling coal dust. Farmer's lung, from inhaling farm dust. Asbestosis, from inhaling asbestos fibers.
Interstitial lung disease is the name for a large group of diseases that inflame or scar the lungs. The inflammation and scarring make it hard to get enough oxygen. The scarring is called pulmonary fibrosis. Breathing in dust or other particles in the air is responsible for some types of interstitial lung diseases .
The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10 codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more. The following references are applicable to the code J84.9:
The General Equivalency Mapping (GEM) crosswalk indicates an approximate mapping between the ICD-10 code J84.9 its ICD-9 equivalent. The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 code and the ICD-9 code and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.
Silicosis, from inhaling silica dust. Other causes include autoimmune diseases or occupational exposures to molds, gases, or fumes. Some types of interstitial lung disease have no known cause. Treatment depends on the type of exposure and the stage of the disease.
