ICD-10 | Moderate persistent asthma, uncomplicated (J45. 40)
During an asthma attack, also called an asthma exacerbation, the airways become swollen and inflamed. The muscles around the airways contract and the airways produce extra mucus, causing the breathing (bronchial) tubes to narrow. During an attack, you may cough, wheeze and have trouble breathing.Oct 1, 2021
The ICD-CM codes for asthma have changed from 493.00 – 493.99 in ICD-9-CM to J45.May 16, 2019
Code J45* is the diagnosis code used for Asthma. It is a common chronic disease in which the bronchial airways in the lungs become narrowed and swollen, making it difficult to breathe.
Unspecified asthma with (acute) exacerbation J45. 901 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.

Extrinsic asthma, also known as allergic asthma, affects 50% of patients with asthma and occurs more often in children and younger adults. Most patients with this form of asthma demonstrate an inherited allergic predisposition. The inhalation of specific allergens may precipitate acute asthmatic episodes.
R06.2ICD-10 | Wheezing (R06. 2)
Under the ICD-10 CM coding system, asthma is coded as J45. x, in addition to a code of Z56. 9 to refer to occupational problems or work circumstances. Occupational asthma is asthma caused by, or worsened by, exposure to substances in the workplace.
Occupational asthma is asthma that's caused by breathing in chemical fumes, gases, dust or other substances on the job. Occupational asthma can result from exposure to a substance you're sensitive to — causing an allergic or immunological response — or to an irritating toxic substance.Mar 20, 2020
493.02 - Extrinsic asthma with (acute) exacerbation. ICD-10-CM.
493.92 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of asthma, unspecified type, with (acute) exacerbation. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.

A diagnosis of COPD and acute bronchitis is classified to code 491.22. It is not necessary to assign code 466.0 (acute bronchitis) with 491.22. Code 491.22 is also assigned if the physician documents acute bronchitis with COPD exacerbation.
Asthma with COPD is classified to code 493.2x. However, all coding directives in the Tabular List and index need to be reviewed to ensure appropriate code assignment. A fifth-digit sub classification is needed to identify the presence of status asthmaticus or exacerbation.
Exacerbation is defined as a decompensation of a chronic condition. It is also defined as an increased severity of asthma symptoms, such as wheezing and shortness of breath. Although an infection can trigger it, an exacerbation is not the same as an infection superimposed on a chronic condition.

In most cases the manifestation codes will have in the code title, "in diseases classified elsewhere.". Codes with this title are a component of the etiology/manifestation convention. The code title indicates that it is a manifestation code.
Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, tightness in the chest, shortness of breath, and rapid breathing. An attack may be brought on by pet hair, dust, smoke, pollen, mold, exercise, cold air, or stress.

It means "not coded here". A type 1 excludes note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as J45. A type 1 excludes note is for used for when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition. detergent asthma (.
