B58 — Toxoplasmosis
Non-billable headerICD-10-CM
B58 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for toxoplasmosis. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.
Excludes1 — never code together
These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.
- congenital toxoplasmosis (P37.1)
Includes
Conditions this code covers.
- infection due to Toxoplasma gondii
Other codes that can never be billed with B58
These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at B58. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading B58 alone.
- M63Disorders of muscle in diseases classified elsewhere
- N16Renal tubulo-interstitial disorders in diseases classified elsewhere
- G05Encephalitis, myelitis and encephalomyelitis in diseases classified elsewhere
- H20.0Acute and subacute iridocyclitis
- H32Chorioretinal disorders in diseases classified elsewhere
- I41Myocarditis in diseases classified elsewhere
- J17Pneumonia in diseases classified elsewhere
- K77Liver disorders in diseases classified elsewhere
Risk adjustment
B58 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.
Code to one of these instead B58
6 child codes. Green means billable.
