These are not written on J10.89, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing J10.89 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on J10 Influenza due to other identified influenza virus

  • influenza due to avian influenza virus (J09.X-)
  • influenza due to swine flu (J09.X-)
  • influenza due to unidentifed influenza virus (J11.-)

Other codes that can never be billed with J10.89

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at J10.89. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading J10.89 alone.

  • J09Influenza due to certain identified influenza viruses

Risk adjustment

J10.89 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.

Medicare coverage

J10.89 is named in 11 Medicare coverage policies 11 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
