Specific code 2008 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 136.9
Unspecified infectious and parasitic diseases
  • Short description: INFECT/PARASITE DIS NOS.
  • ICD-9-CM 136.9 is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 136.9 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015. For claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015, use an equivalent ICD-10-CM code (or codes).
  • You are viewing the 2008 version of ICD-9-CM 136.9.
