What History of COVID-19 ICD-10 codes can I use?
If you’re looking for History of COVID-19 ICD codes, only one is meant for it, and that’s Z86.16 - Personal history of COVID-19.
This ICD-10 code is meant to be used on a patient confirmed to have had COVID-19 at one point in their life. This is meant to be used during health check-ups, likely for those who have respiratory issues. It can be used to explain if a person’s current respiratory issues result from COVID-19.
Please note that this ICD-10 code is unacceptable as a principal diagnosis. It’s meant to explain a patient’s current health status, and it doesn’t diagnose anything.
