=== Infections ===
=== Antibiotic resistance ===
==== Diagnosis codes that imply the pathogen ====
Antibiotic resistance is coded as [[Combined ICD10 codes]] of the condition/pathogen and the resistance. See [[Antibiotic Resistant Organism]] for more info.
*There are some single infection codes that incorporate the organism in the name, e.g: '''[[Salmonella enteritis]]'''
 
==== Infections where pathogen is coded separately ====
*But for most infections, they don't, e.g: '''[[Pneumonia, bacterial]]'''
**In these cases it is '''''required''''' to combine with the infection code the code for the organism from the "buglist":  {{ListICD10Category | categoryName = Pathogens}}
*The buglist contains specific codes for a number of different bacteria, viruses, fungi/yeast, mycobacteria and miscellaneous types of organisms.
**If you don't see the specific organism in your case, then there are wastebasket codes: 
***[[Bacteria, NOS]]
***[[Virus, NOS]]
***[[Fungus or yeast, NOS]]
***[[Nontuberculous mycobacteria]]
*** [[Infectious disease NOS OR for buglist organism NOS]] (when you don't have any idea even what type of bug it is)
==== Antibiotic resistance ====
If the bug is resistant to antimicrobials, the infection/bug combination should be further combined with a code for antibiotic resistance -- thus in this situation there may be 3 or more codes all combined together (the infection, the bug, the antibiotic resistance(s)).
