A19.2 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Acute miliary tuberculosis, unspecified . It is found in the 2022 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2021 - Sep 30, 2022 .

New ICD-10-CM Codes: Z11.7: “Encounter for testing for latent tuberculosis infection”. Z86.15: “Personal history of latent tuberculosis infection”. Z22.7: “Carrier of latent tuberculosis,” which includes a previous positive test for TB infection without evidence of disease, but excludes:

Secondary tuberculosis: seen mostly in adults as a reactivation of previous infection (or reinfection), particularly when health status declines. The granulomatous inflammation is much more florid and widespread. Typically, the upper lung lobes are most affected, and cavitation can occur.
Secondary tuberculosis usually occurs because of reactivation of latent tuberculosis infection. The lesions of secondary tuberculosis are in the lung apices. A smaller proportion of people who develop secondary tuberculosis do so after getting infected a second time (re-infection).
To bill for placing the purified protein derivative (PPD) skin test for tuberculosis, use CPT®code 86580. Use this code when the nurse or medical assistant places the test on the patient's skin. The CPT®definition of the code is: Skin test, tuberculosis, intradermal.

Primary and secondary TB are also thought to have characteristic radiographic and clinical features: primary TB is said to be characterized by lower-lobe disease, adenopathy, and pleural effusions, and termed atypical, whereas secondary, or reactivation, TB is associated with upper lobe disease and cavitation, termed ...
About 90 - 95 % of cases with secondary tuberculosis in adults occur by the reactivation of the latent primary infection, the other cases resulting from reinfection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Key risk factors include exposure to infection, birth in an endemic country, and HIV infection. Symptoms may include cough, fever, and weight loss.
Your tests show that you have latent TB infection, also referred to as "LTBI." Latent TB infection means TB germs are in your body but it is like the germs are sleeping. The latent TB germs are not hurting you and cannot spread to other people. If the TB germs wake up and become active, they can make you sick.

An abnormal (positive) result means you have been infected with the bacteria that cause TB. You may need treatment to lower the risk of the disease coming back (reactivation of the disease). A positive skin test does not mean that a person has active TB. More tests must be done to check whether there is active disease.
Complications of disseminated TB can include:Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)Liver inflammation.Lung failure.Return of the disease.
Pulmonary TB is curable with treatment, but if left untreated or not fully treated, the disease often causes life-threatening concerns. Untreated pulmonary TB disease can lead to long-term damage to these parts of the body: lungs. brain.
Secondary pulmonary TB (reactivation) is characterized by a focus of infection and granuloma formation usually in the apex of the lung. The small granulomas (tubercles) eventually coalesce to form larger areas of consolidation with central caseating necrosis. Regional lymph nodes contain caseating granulomas.
The only sign of TB infection is a positive reaction to the tuberculin skin test or TB blood test. Persons with latent TB infection are not infectious and cannot spread TB infection to others. Overall, without treatment, about 5 to 10% of infected persons will develop TB disease at some time in their lives.
There are 3 stages of TB—exposure, latent, and active disease. A TB skin test or a TB blood test can diagnose the disease. Treatment exactly as recommended is necessary to cure the disease and prevent its spread to other people.
Multiple coding should be used when the classification provided the classification code that identifies all of the elements documented in the diagnosis. The code for the acute phase of an illness or injury that led to the sequela can be used with a code for the late effect.
The residual effect is reported as a secondary code. In sequela effect, the code is either a current injury or a condition caused by a prior injury. It cannot be both. Although each diagnosis code may be reported only once per encounter, each code can be reported more than once per patient.
Deaths with J65 coded as a cause of death on the entity axis are included in the entity axis multiple cause-of-death tabulation if none of the following codes are listed as a cause of death on the entity axis: A16, A19, and B90.9.
