Influenza (also known as the flu) is a contagious upper respiratory infection (URTI) caused by flu viruses.

stomach flu is not influenza

Pre ICD10 instructions

Coding Instructions

  • we don't have a code for "flu".
  • code as: Tracheobronchitis with pathogen subcode - Influenza virus
    • must be have positive culture nasal swab culture. If negative nasal swab, then must be confirmed with Cadham lab result before coded as influenza related.

CAP?

Do not code as a CAP due to an Influenza virus unless there is supporting evidence such CXR changes AND a positive culture from Cadham Lab.

Disseminated Infection

A Disseminated Infection due to a flu virus is extremely rare. If there are other organs that are suspected to be infected with influenza (ie. viral Myocarditis., etc) plus you have a positive influenza swab then you can use Disseminated Infection as the diagnostic code with Influenza virus as the pathogen. (This directive was given by Dr. Kumar).

Septic Shock

If patient has Septic Shock or Severe Sepsis code results of blood culture sent if one has been sent.

  • Code tracheobronchitis if nasal swab is positive for Influenza virus. If negative nasal swab, then must be confirmed with Cadham lab result before coded as influenza related.

Legacy information

This code replaces 3005 - Bronchitis as of 2013 May 31. See Bronchitis#Legacy Information for more info.
