COVID-19 ICD-10 code

The ICD-10-CM code for covid-19 is U07.1 covid-19. It is billable and valid for submission on a claim. There are 13 related codes, and which one you use depends on what the documentation supports.

Also written as coronavirus, sars-cov-2.

The mistake coders make here

U07.1 is for a confirmed, active case. Post-COVID conditions are U09.9, and a personal history of COVID with no current infection is Z86.16. Coding U07.1 for a resolved case is wrong.
