Questions About J10.2Overview

Is J10.2 (Influenza due to other identified influenza virus) a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report influenza due to other identified influenza virus with gastrointestinal manifestations on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

What MS-DRG does J10.2 group to?

When influenza due to other identified influenza virus with gastrointestinal manifestations is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 866, 865, with relative weights from 0.8691 to 1.3153 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Can J10.2 be reported with a code from A08?

Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note on J10.2 lists "'intestinal flu' [viral gastroenteritis] (A08.-)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of J10.2?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, influenza due to other identified influenza virus with gastrointestinal manifestations converts to ICD-9-CM 487.8 (flu w manifestation NEC). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
