Wiki Coding Strep Cellulitis

[warrenfamily103@gmail.com]

Hello, I am looking for some advice on coding Cellulitis. The documentation states Strep Cellulitis. Would the appropriate codes be Cellulitis (L03.90) and Streptococcal infection, unspecified site (A49.1)? Thanks in advance for your input.

I code the site of the cellulitis then the bacteria or virus.
