Most of these infections resolve spontaneously but some progress to a high-grade preinvasive cervical lesion (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia) or cervical cancer.

Is B97.7. R87.810 cervical?

HPV testing must be positive by viral detection tests in order to code as B97.7. R87.810 is not appropriate as there is no reference to this being cervical & it could very well be anal, but in either case neither are correct to use. That is unless it is documented, as coding based on assumption is not allowed.

Is B97.7 a positive HPV?

For the HPV+ as long as it is officially documented by a physician as HPV+ you could could use B97.7. This is not to be confused with p16 positivity. HPV-positive is not equivalent to HPV mediated (p16+). HPV-type 16 refers to virus type and is different from p16 overexpression (p16+).
