What This Code Means
A98.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for omsk hemorrhagic fever. A rare viral infection found in Siberia that causes fever, bleeding, and potentially fatal complications affecting multiple organ systems. A98.1 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for certain infectious and parasitic diseases (a00-b99), within the section covering arthropod-borne viral fevers and viral hemorrhagic fevers (a90-a99).
A98.1 is a billable ICD-10-CM code, but the current payload does not show a mapping under the CMS-HCC V28 or V24 community payment models, and none under the ESRD, Part D RxHCC, or HHS-HCC models. Do not assign risk adjustment value from this page when no source-backed mapping is shown; verify the applicable model and payment year.
