This document provides medical codes for reporting cases of COVID-19. It lists the ICD-10 code U07.1 for emergency reporting of COVID-19 and B97.29 for confirmed cases. Additional codes are recommended for complications like pneumonia. Signs and symptoms of COVID-19 that can be coded include cough, shortness of breath, and fever. HCPCS and CPT codes are also provided for COVID-19 diagnostic testing and lab work. Medical coding companies can help hospitals properly report and bill for COVID-19 cases and treatment.
