The ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification) is a system used by physicians and other healthcare providers to classify and code all diagnoses, symptoms and procedures recorded in conjunction with hospital care in the United States.
Used for medical claim reporting in all healthcare settings, ICD-10-CM is a standardized classification system of diagnosis codes that represent conditions and diseases, related health problems, abnormal findings, signs and symptoms, injuries, external causes of injuries and diseases, and social circumstances.
Abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of lungICD-10 code R91 for Abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of lung is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
ICD-10-CM J41. 8 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 190 Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with mcc.
J98. 4 - Other disorders of lung. ICD-10-CM.
ICD-10-CM Code for Other disorders of lung J98. 4.
Obstructive lung diseases include conditions that make it hard to exhale all the air in the lungs. People with restrictive lung disease have difficulty fully expanding their lungs with air. Obstructive and restrictive lung disease share the same main symptom: shortness of breath with exertion.
ICD-10-CM Code for Mixed simple and mucopurulent chronic bronchitis J41. 8.
ICD-10 code R93. 89 for Abnormal findings on diagnostic imaging of other specified body structures is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Lung consolidation occurs when the air that usually fills the small airways in your lungs is replaced with something else. Depending on the cause, the air may be replaced with: a fluid, such as pus, blood, or water. a solid, such as stomach contents or cells.
Bronchiectasis is a long-term condition where the airways of the lungs become widened, leading to a build-up of excess mucus that can make the lungs more vulnerable to infection. The most common symptoms of bronchiectasis include: a persistent cough that usually brings up phlegm (sputum) shortness of breath.
Unlike obstructive lung diseases, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which show a normal or increased total lung capacity (TLC), restrictive disease are associated with a decreased TLC.
Examples of restrictive lung diseases include asbestosis, sarcoidosis and pulmonary fibrosis.
Other nonspecific abnormal finding of lung fieldICD-10 code R91. 8 for Other nonspecific abnormal finding of lung field is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, refers to a group of diseases that cause airflow blockage and breathing-related problems. It includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. COPD makes breathing difficult for the 16 million Americans who have this disease.
Restrictive lung disease, a decrease in the total volume of air that the lungs are able to hold, is often due to a decrease in the elasticity of the lungs themselves or caused by a problem related to the expansion of the chest wall during inhalation.
Code G47. 33 is the diagnosis code used for Obstructive Sleep Apnea. It is a sleep disorder characterized by pauses in breathing or instances of shallow breathing during sleep.
A chronic disease in which the bronchial airways in the lungs become narrowed and swollen, making it difficult to breathe. Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, tightness in the chest, shortness of breath, and rapid breathing.
Lobar consolidation is the representative pattern of lobar pneumonia. The lobar pneumonia is one of the two morphologic classifications of pneumonia (the other being bronchopneumonia). Lobar consolidation in lobar pneumonia tends to be located at the middle and outer thirds of the lung. Remy J. Fleischner Society: glossary ...
Just a peek at the mind of a coder. Some in the industry may view the statement of "consolidation of right or left lung noted on imaging" as what we used to refer to as a "finding" or "finding without a diagnoses". Auditors would likely try to make up some reason for taking that off with what ever the argument de jour of the day is as well "not clearly documented", "inconsistent", "lacking in the documentation of the clinical significance" etc. If it appears appropriate to report lobar pneumonia more "MEAT" is needed I think.
