Oth enterovirus as the cause of diseases classd elswhr

This code identifies an infection caused by an enterovirus, excluding poliovirus, as the underlying etiology for a disease primarily classified in another chapter of ICD-10-CM. It signifies that the enterovirus is the causative agent of a condition that manifests in various body systems.

Use this code when documentation explicitly states an enteroviral infection (e.g., Coxsackievirus, Echovirus, Enterovirus D68) is the confirmed cause of a disease such as viral meningitis, myocarditis, or hand-foot-and-mouth disease. This code is always a secondary diagnosis, following the code for the specific manifestation.

• Always sequence this code after the code for the specific disease manifestation caused by the enterovirus (e.g., G03.0 for enteroviral meningitis).
• Do not use this code for poliovirus infections; specific codes exist for those.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the enterovirus to the "diseases classified elsewhere" for appropriate use.
