BillableWest Nile virus infection with other neurologic manifestation

What This Code Means
This code describes a West Nile virus infection that has affected the nervous system in ways other than meningitis or encephalitis, such as causing weakness, paralysis, or other neurological complications. West Nile virus is spread by mosquitoes and can cause serious illness affecting the brain and spinal cord.
Coding Tips
- •Use this code only when West Nile virus has caused neurologic manifestations that are NOT meningitis (A92.30) or encephalitis (A92.31); document the specific neurologic symptom if possible (e.g., paralysis, weakness)
- •Verify that the diagnosis documentation clearly links the neurologic condition to West Nile virus infection rather than coding them as separate conditions
Use Additional Code
