Additional Info
- This code is for bronchitis or tracheobronchitis which: (a) may be infectious or non-infectious, BUT (b) is NOT specified as acute or chronic.
- An IMPORTANT potential confusion is this code versus Bronchitis, chronic, infectious or noninfectious
- The difference is whether it's known to be chronic (Bronchitis, chronic, infectious or noninfectious) versus not clear if it's chronic or acute (Bronchitis, acute or chronic not specified, infectious or noninfectious).
- On the other hand, for ACUTE infectious bronchitis or tracheobronchitis, use: Lower respiratory tract infection, acute infectious
Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead or in addition
