Clinical Classification

Clinical Classifications group individual ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes into broader, clinically meaningful categories. These categories help simplify complex data by organizing related conditions under common clinical themes.

They are especially useful for data analysis, reporting, and clinical decision-making. Even when diagnosis codes differ, similar conditions can be grouped together based on their clinical relevance. Each category is assigned a unique CCSR code that represents a specific clinical concept, often tied to a body system or medical specialty.

External cause codes: complications of medical and surgical care, initial encounter

CCSR Code: EXT025

Inpatient Default: X - Not applicable.

Outpatient Default: X - Not applicable.

Clinical Information

  • Invasive Pulmonary Aspergillosis

    lung infections with the invasive forms of aspergillus, usually after surgery, transplantation, prolonged neutropenia or treatment with high-doses of corticosteroids. invasive pulmonary aspergillosis can progress to chronic necrotizing pulmonary aspergillosis or hematogenous spread to other organs.
  • Pulmonary Aspergillosis

    infections of the respiratory tract with fungi of the genus aspergillus.
  • COVID-19

    a viral disorder generally characterized by high fever; cough; dyspnea; chills; persistent tremor; muscle pain; headache; sore throat; a new loss of taste and/or smell (see ageusia and anosmia) and other symptoms of a viral pneumonia. a coronavirus, sars-cov-2 virus, in the genus betacoronavirus is the causative agent.
  • COVID-19 Testing

    diagnosis of covid-19 by assaying bodily fluids or tissues for the presence of covid-19 antibodies, sars-cov-2 antigens or the viral rna of sars-cov-2.
  • SARS-CoV-2

    a species of betacoronavirus causing atypical respiratory disease (covid-19) in humans. the organism was first identified in 2019 in wuhan, china. the natural host is the chinese intermediate horseshoe bat, rhinolophus affinis.
  • Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome

    a viral disorder characterized by high fever, dry cough, shortness of breath (dyspnea) or breathing difficulties, and atypical pneumonia. a virus in the genus coronavirus is the suspected agent.
  • Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus

    a species of coronavirus causing atypical respiratory disease (severe acute respiratory syndrome) in humans. the organism is believed to have first emerged in guangdong province, china, in 2002. the natural host is the chinese horseshoe bat, rhinolophus sinicus.
  • Aspergillus

    a genus of mitosporic fungi containing about 100 species and eleven different teleomorphs in the family trichocomaceae.

Convert Y95 to ICD-9-CM

Below are the ICD-9 codes that most closely match this ICD-10 code, based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMs). This ICD-10 to ICD-9 crosswalk tool is helpful for coders who need to reference legacy diagnosis codes for audits, historical claims, or approximate code comparisons.

ICD-9-CM:

Approximate Flag - The approximate mapping means this ICD-10 code does not have an exact ICD-9 equivalent. The matched code is the closest available option, but it may not fully capture the original diagnosis or clinical intent.

Patient Education


Infection Control

Every year, lives are lost because of the spread of infections in hospitals. Health care workers can take steps to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. These steps are part of infection control.

Proper hand washing is the most effective way to prevent the spread of infections in hospitals. If you are a patient, don't be afraid to remind friends, family and health care providers to wash their hands before getting close to you.

Other steps health care workers can take include:

  • Covering coughs and sneezes
  • Staying up to date with vaccinations
  • Using gloves, masks and protective clothing
  • Making tissues and hand cleaners available
  • Following hospital guidelines when dealing with blood or contaminated items
