 == Additional Info ==
+*Fungemia is a lab finding, not a disease.  Following our general rule, code symptoms, signs and diagnostic abnormalities when the underlying CAUSE is unknown.  If that cause is known, then of course you must code it, and coding the abnormal finding is optional.
+**So, if the patient has a known infection AND/OR '''[[Severe sepsis]]''' OR '''[[Shock, septic]]''' you MUST code those.
