Coding sepsis requires a minimum of two codes: a code for the systemic infection (e.g., 038. xx) and the code 995.91, SIRS due to infectious process without organ dysfunction. If no causal organism is documented within the medical record, query the physician or assign code 038.9, Unspecified septicemia.
MSSA Bacteremia occurs when the MSSA bacteria enter your bloodstream. This is a serious infection that has a high risk of complications and death. Once it's in the bloodstream, the infection often spreads to other organs and tissues within the body such as the heart, lungs, or brain.

ICD Code A41.0 is a non-billable code. To code a diagnosis of this type, you must use one of the two child codes of A41.0 that describes the diagnosis 'sepsis due to staphylococcus aureus' in more detail. A41.0 Sepsis due to Staphylococcus aureus. NON-BILLABLE.
Specialty: Infectious Disease. MeSH Code: D018805. ICD 9 Code: 995.91. Blood culture bottles: orange label for anaerobes, green label for aerobes, and yellow label for blood samples from children.
The ICD code A41 is used to code Sepsis. Sepsis is a whole-body inflammatory response to an infection. Common signs and symptoms include fever, increased heart rate, increased breathing rate, and confusion. There may also be symptoms related to a specific infection, such as a cough with pneumonia, or painful urination with a kidney infection.
Use a child code to capture more detail. ICD Code A41.0 is a non-billable code.
