- Billable — Valid for Submission
- Not Chronic
J14 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for pneumonia due to Hemophilus influenzae. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 193 through 195, 974 through 976. Coders also document this condition as bronchopneumonia caused by Haemophilus influenzae. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Bacterial infections and Pneumonia (except that caused by tuberculosis).

Type 1 Excludes
- congenital pneumonia due to H. influenzae P23.6
These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.
A "code also" note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction.
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Questions About J14Overview
Is J14 (Pneumonia due to Hemophilus influenzae) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report pneumonia due to Hemophilus influenzae on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does J14 group to?
When pneumonia due to Hemophilus influenzae is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 193, 194, 195, 974, 975, 976, with relative weights from 0.6285 to 2.8860 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of J14?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, pneumonia due to Hemophilus influenzae converts to ICD-9-CM 482.2 (h.influenzae pneumonia). The mapping is a direct match.
Footnotes
[1] Not chronic - A diagnosis code that does not fit the criteria for chronic condition (duration, ongoing medical treatment, and limitations) is considered not chronic. Some codes designated as not chronic are acute conditions. Other diagnosis codes that indicate a possible chronic condition, but for which the duration of the illness is not specified in the code description (i.e., we do not know the condition has lasted 12 months or longer) also are considered not chronic.
