BillableAcute gastroenteropathy due to other small round viruses
This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).
What This Code Means
This code describes a sudden onset of stomach and intestinal inflammation caused by small round viruses other than norovirus or rotavirus. It typically presents with symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal discomfort.
Coding Tips
- •Use this code only when the specific small round virus has been identified but is not norovirus (A08.11) or rotavirus (A08.0), and documentation confirms acute gastroenteropathy
- •Ensure documentation specifies the viral etiology and acute presentation; if the virus type is unknown or unspecified, consider code A08.39 instead
