A patient presents with fever, cough, SOB, and a recent history of COVID-19. A PCR test was positive for COVID-19. The provider documents a final diagnosis of “pneumonia with history of COVID-19.”
The provider documents history of COVID-19, not active COVID-19.
Z86.16 = Personal history of COVID-19
J18.9 = Pneumonia, unspecified organism
Codes U07.1 and U09.9 are for current or post-COVID conditions, which are not documented here. Therefore, A is correct.
