Take “sore throat” for example. Code R07. 0, “Pain in throat,” specifically excludes “sore throat (acute),” but J02. 9, “Acute pharyngi- tis, unspecified,” specifically includes “sore throat (acute).” Therefore, it appears that ICD-10 considers “sore throat” to be a definitive diagnosis rather than a symptom.

The least appropriate code is unspecified. Only use unspecified when there is not a more definitive code. Reviewing the principles of ICD-10 and the classifications of uveitis will help ensure correct ...
The process of diagnosing anterior uveitis and determining the most specific code is outlined in Figure 1. The initial diagnosis of anterior uveitis (primary acute, recurrent acute, and chronic) is used when waiting for a confirmed diagnosis.
When selecting the appropriate ICD-10, you should choose the code that accurately reflects the initial confirmed diagnosis. The best code is the actual disease. Without a confirmed diagnosis, the next best is a sign or symptom. After that, other is the best option. The least appropriate code is unspecified.
There are no specific ICD-10 codes for panuveitis secondary to a systemic disease. For these conditions, use the secondary anterior uveitis code in addition to the panuveitis code. By definition, panuveitis includes anterior uveitis, so this coding is anatomically correct. Click to view larger.
The least appropriate code is unspecified. Only use unspecified when there is not a more definitive code. Code the diagnosis you know. Do not code probable, suspected, or questionable diagnoses, do not you rule out conditions until they are confirmed. These principles are relevant when coding for uveitis cases.
There may be cases where the underlying cause is not identified, and the diagnosis will remain anterior uveitis. For patients presenting with panuveitis, there may be an initial diagnosis, followed by a confirmed diagnosis following additional workup.
Based on the anatomical involvement, uveitis can be classified as anterior, affecting the anterior chamber/iris; intermediate, affecting the vitreous/pars plana; posterior, affecting the retina and choroid; or panuveitis, affecting the anterior chamber, vitreous, and retina/choroid.
