To accurately assign the ICD-10 code D89. 9, disorder involving the immune mechanism unspecified, or D84. 9, immunodeficiency unspecified, the patient's immunocompromised state should not be attributed to a chronic condition or a prescribed medication therapy.
ICD-10 code Z92. 25 for Personal history of immunosuppression therapy is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
ICD-10 code J18. 9 for Pneumonia, unspecified organism is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the respiratory system .
A: When the provider uses terms such as “CAP,” “HAP,” or “HCAP,” these would default to code J18. 9, pneumonia, unspecified organism, which maps to simple pneumonia MS-DRG 193/194/195. Community acquired pneumonia (CAP) is typically a simple pneumonia, but could also be atypical pneumonia.
When your immune system fails to respond adequately to infection, it's called an immunodeficiency, and you may be immunocompromised. People may also suffer from the opposite condition, an overactive immune system that attacks healthy cells as though they were foreign bodies, and that is called an autoimmune response.
Immunocompromise/immunodeficiency is part of the clinical picture in HIV disease, and code B20 captures fully the immunocompromised state.” Fortunately, there is an Excludes1 note under code D84.
9: Fever, unspecified.

In community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), you get infected in a community setting. It doesn't happen in a hospital, nursing home, or other healthcare center. Your lungs are part of your respiratory system. This system supplies fresh oxygen to your blood and removes carbon dioxide, a waste product.
In the absence of an alternate etiology such as influenza, patients with HIV infection who are admitted with CAP should be placed on airborne isolation while the possibility of active pulmonary tuberculosis is evaluated (eg, with sputum AFB smears/cultures), factoring in local incidence and potential exposure risk.
Pneumonia is contagious just like a cold or flu when it is caused by infectious microbes. However, pneumonia is not contagious when the cause is related to a type of poisoning like inhalation of chemical fumes.
Personal history of pneumonia (recurrent) Z87. 01 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 Z87. 01 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The CURB-65 is a severity score for CAP, comprising 5 variables, attributing 1 point for each item: new onset confusion; urea >7 mmol/L; respiratory rate ≥30/minute, systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≤60 mmHg; and age ≥65 years.
Pneumonia is an infection of one or both of the lungs caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. It is a serious infection in which the air sacs fill with pus and other liquid. Lobar pneumonia affects one or more sections (lobes) of the lungs.
Nosocomial pneumonia or hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP) is defined as pneumonia that occurs 48 hours or more after hospital admission and not incubating at the admission time. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) represents a significant sub-set of HAP occurring in intensive care units (ICUs).
