Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease (042) ICD-9 code 042 for Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range -HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS (HIV) INFECTION (042). Subscribe to Codify and get the code details in a flash.
042 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of human immunodeficiency virus [hiv] disease. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent. References found for the code 042 in the Index of Diseases and Injuries:

Human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium, if applicable ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code O98.7 Human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease complicating pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium
The classification for symptomatic HIV infection consists of a single, three-digit ICD-9-CM code -- code 042, found in Chapter 1, Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, of the ICD-9-CM. This classification places HIV infection at the beginning of the section on viral diseases.
Assign code B20 for all types of HIV infections, which may be described by a variety of terms including: • AIDS. Acquired immune deficiency syndrome. Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
ICD-10-CM Code for Human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease B20.
When the patient with HIV disease is admitted for an unrelated condition (such as a traumatic injury), the code for the unrelated condition should be the principal diagnosis. Other diagnoses would be B20 followed by additional diagnosis codes for all reported HIV-related conditions.
Once a patient is coded to B20, they will always have B20 coded on their record; they will never go back to being coded using the asymptomatic code Z21. Code Z21 is used for patients who are asymptomatic, meaning they are HIV positive but have never had an HIV-related condition.

A code from categories Z03-Z04 can be assigned only as the principal diagnosis or reason for encounter, never as a secondary diagnosis.
The ICD-10-CM code Z21, Asymptomatic human immunodeficiency virus, is used when there is no documentation of symptoms, or if the patient is described as HIV positive, having known HIV, or similar terminology.

HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus. It kills or damages the body's immune system cells. AIDS stands for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. It is the most advanced stage of infection with HIV.
The first signs of HIV infection may be swollen glands and flu-like symptoms. These may come and go a month or two after infection. Severe symptoms may not appear until months or years later.
As of October 2015, ICD-9 codes are no longer used for medical coding. Instead, use this equivalent ICD-10-CM code, which is an exact match to ICD-9 code 042:
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.
The classification for symptomatic HIV infection consists of a single, three-digit ICD-9-CM code -- code 042, found in Chapter 1, Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, of the ICD-9-CM. This classification places HIV infection at the beginning of the section on viral diseases. Multiple coding of all listed manifestations of HIV infection is required. The new code for asymptomatic HIV infection, V08, is found in the Supplementary Classification of Factors Influencing Health Status and Contact with Health Services; the code for inconclusive serologic tests for HIV, 795.71, is found in Chapter 16, Signs, Symptoms, and Ill-Defined Conditions.
In addition, a new code, V08, has been created for asymptomatic HIV infection. The new code, 795.71, is applicable only to those patients who test positive on a preliminary screening test, but whose HIV infection status is not yet confirmed.
Patients with physician-documented asymptomatic HIV infections who have never had an HIV-related illness should be coded to V08, Asymptomatic Human Immunodeficiency Virus {HIV} Infection.
Code 795.8 was intended for inconclusive HIV test results, whereas code 044.9 was intended for asymptomatic HIV infection (or a statement of "HIV positive"). However, both of these codes have been widely misused because of the lack of clear instructions and guidelines.
The increasing incidence of HIV infection and advances in medical knowledge about the spectrum of illnesses caused by this virus have created demand for continued modifications to the classification. The current modifications will simplify the coding of HIV-related illnesses and should improve the accuracy of reporting, allowing public health officials, clinical researchers, and agencies that finance health care to monitor more reliably the diagnoses of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and other manifestations of HIV infection.
If the results are negative, use code V65.44, HIV counseling. If the results are positive, code V08, Asymptomatic HIV infection, should be used unless the patient has symptoms of HIV disease. If the test result is positive and the patient has an HIV-related illness, code 042, HIV disease, should be used.
Patients who are admitted for an HIV-related illness should be assigned a minimum of two codes: first assign code 042 to identify the HIV disease and then sequence additional codes to identify the other diagnoses. If a patient is admitted for an HIV-related condition, the principal diagnosis should be 042, followed by additional diagnosis codes for all reported HIV-related conditions.
One or more indicator diseases, depending on laboratory evidence of hiv infection (cdc); late phase of hiv infection characterized by marked suppression of immune function resulting in opportunistic infections, neoplasms, and other systemic symptoms (niaid). rheumatoid arthritis ( M05.-)
Patients with aids are especially susceptible to opportunistic infections (usually pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, cytomegalovirus (cmv) infections, tuberculosis, candida infections, and cryptococcosis), and the development of malignant neoplasms (usually non-hodgkin's lymphoma and kaposi's sarcoma).
Clinical Information. A disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus (hiv). People with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome are at an increased risk for developing certain cancers and for infections that usually occur only in individuals with a weak immune system.
A prodromal phase of infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (hiv). Laboratory criteria separating aids-related complex (arc) from aids include elevated or hyperactive b-cell humoral immune responses, compared to depressed or normal antibody reactivity in aids; follicular or mixed hyperplasia in arc lymph nodes, leading to lymphocyte degeneration and depletion more typical of aids; evolving succession of histopathological lesions such as localization of kaposi's sarcoma, signaling the transition to the full-blown aids.
An acquired defect of cellular immunity associated with infection by the human immunodeficiency virus (hiv), a cd4-positive t-lymphocyte count under 200 cells/microliter or less than 14% of total lymphocytes, and increased susceptibility to opportunistic infections and malignant neoplasms.
The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM B20 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Any state of infection accompanied by evidence of hiv in the body (positive test for hiv genome, cdna, proteins, antigens, or antibodies); may be medically asymptomatic or symptomatic; use aids when appropriate.
