Herpesviral cervicitis

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

This is a viral infection of the cervix (the opening of the uterus) caused by the herpes simplex virus. It causes inflammation and may result in pain, discharge, or lesions in the cervical area.

Coding Tips

  • •Verify documentation specifies herpesviral cervicitis rather than other forms of cervicitis; the A60.03 code is specific to herpes simplex virus infection of the cervix
  • •Ensure the clinical record documents cervicitis (inflammation of the cervix) in addition to the herpesviral infection, as both components are necessary for accurate coding
