Parainfluenza virus pneumonia. 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Billable/Specific Code. J12.2 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2020 edition of ICD-10-CM J12.2 became effective on October 1, 2019.
A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. Human parainfluenza viruses (hPIVs) are the viruses that cause 'human parainfluenza.' hPIVs are a group of four distinct serotypes of enveloped single-stranded RNA viruses belonging to the paramyxovirus family.
Human parainfluenza viruses (hPIVs) are the viruses that cause 'human parainfluenza.' hPIVs are a group of four distinct serotypes of enveloped single-stranded RNA viruses belonging to the paramyxovirus family. These viruses are closely associated with both human and veterinary disease.
Parainfluenza virus (types 1 and 2) is more often associated with laryngotracheobronchitis and croup than with pneumonia (usually type 3). Parainfluenza is second only to RSV as an etiology of lower respiratory tract disease responsible for the hospitalization of children.
Parainfluenza viruses (PIVs) are important respiratory pathogens in adults and children. Although parainfluenza viruses are commonly recognized as a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in children, their impact in adults is less well characterized [1].
HPIV are contagious. They are most commonly transmitted from a sneeze, but can also be caught by coming in contact with infectious material then touching your eyes, nose, or mouth. The virus can stay alive in the air for up to an hour.
Parainfluenza refers to a group of viruses called human parainfluenza viruses (HPIVs). There are four viruses in this group. Each one causes different symptoms and illnesses. All forms of HPIV cause an infection in either the upper or lower respiratory area of a person's body.
Parainfluenza is a common virus that can cause both upper and lower respiratory infections, including colds, bronchitis, croup, and pneumonia. Despite the name, it is not related to influenza (the flu). It is caused by an entirely different virus known as the human parainfluenza virus (HPIV).
Human parainfluenza viruses (HPIVs) commonly cause upper and lower respiratory illnesses in infants, young children, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems, but anyone can get infected.
COVID-19 and the flu aren't the only viruses around causing us to feel miserable. If you or your child has a case of the sniffles, another common culprit is parainfluenza. Not to be confused with the flu (influenza), parainfluenza refers to a group of viruses called human parainfluenza viruses (or HPIVs).
Treatment. take acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and other over-the-counter medications for pain and fever (Caution: Aspirin should not be given to children.)
Transmission. HPIVs usually spread by direct contact with infectious droplets or by airborne spread when an infected person breathes, coughs, or sneezes. HPIVs may remain infectious in airborne droplets for over an hour and on surfaces for a few hours depending on environmental conditions.
Structure of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) and Parainfluenza Virus (PIV). RSV and the parainfluenza viruses have many structural, pathogenic, epidemiologic, and clinical similarities. Both are enveloped RNA viruses of the family Paramyxoviridae with nonsegmented, single-stranded, negative-sense genomes.
H. influenzae and H. parainfluenzae are among the most common Gram negative bacteria identified from the CF airway and are more prevalent in childhood. Both Haemophilus species are fastidious, non-motile, rods (or coccobacillus) and can form capsules which are important in virulence.
HPIVs routinely cause otitis media, pharyngitis, and conjunctivitis coryza, and these can occur either singly or in combination with a lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI). HPIV-3 is the most frequently reported HPIV associated with otitis media.

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 480.2 was previously used, J12.2 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
