ICD-10-CM classifies bites under Chapter 19: Injury, Poisoning, and Certain Other Consequences of External Causes (S00-T88). Documentation requirements for injuries include the site of injury, as well as the cause. Depending on the payer, a location and activity at the time of injury may also be necessary.
To ensure the right code selection, documentation for tick bites should include the site of the bite and the cause of injury, which in this case would be “bite by a tick.”. If several bites are present, documentation should include the site of each bite. Documentation should also state if there is infection present at the site of the bite.
Tick bites are often easy to spot because the tick usually attaches to the skin and may stay there for up to 10 days. They are mostly harmless, causing minor to no physical symptoms. However, there are disease-carrying ticks that can transfer diseases to humans.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), tick bites are common from April through September — the warmer months, when they are most active. Signs and symptoms vary from no reaction to allergic symptoms such as rash, pain, irritation, and itching at the site of the bite.
Tick-borne illnesses include Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, as well as the lesser- known Colorado tick fever, human granulocytic anaplasmosis, human babesiosis, tularemia, and human monocytic ehrlichiosis.
