The primary ICD-10-CM codes for sinusitis are J01.90, J01.00, J32.9. Across all sub-categories, 30 codes are grouped under sinusitis, with 21 marked as billable (specific enough for a medical claim).

There are 30 ICD-10-CM codes related to sinusitis. Of these, 21 are billable specific codes and 9 are non-billable header categories that organize the specific codes underneath them. Header codes cannot be reported on a claim by themselves.

Common examples include J01.00 (Acute maxillary sinusitis, unspecified); J01.01 (Acute recurrent maxillary sinusitis); J01.10 (Acute frontal sinusitis, unspecified). Code to the highest level of specificity supported by the documentation.

The most commonly used billable codes for sinusitis include: J01.00 (Acute maxillary sinusitis, unspecified); J01.01 (Acute recurrent maxillary sinusitis); J01.10 (Acute frontal sinusitis, unspecified). The correct code depends on the documented clinical presentation, including any complications, episode (acute / chronic), and laterality where applicable. Always code to the highest level of specificity supported by the clinical documentation.

SNOMED CT is a clinical terminology used in electronic health records; AutoICD's coding API returns SNOMED CT IDs alongside each ICD-10 code via the include_snomed=true flag.

The ICD-10 codes for sinusitis are linked to at least 25 UMLS CUIs in the National Library of Medicine's Metathesaurus. Sample CUIs include C0149512, C0264228, C0264229, C4290183, C0155804. UMLS CUIs unify the same concept across SNOMED CT, ICD-10, ICD-11, RxNorm, MeSH, and dozens of other source vocabularies.

Sinusitis may also be referred to as: sinusitis, acute sinusitis, chronic sinusitis, sinus infection. The same ICD-10-CM codes apply regardless of which term appears in the clinical documentation. Synonyms are surfaced by AutoICD's NER pass and mapped to the canonical ICD-10 family above.
