Any suggestions on what ICD10 code to use for Increased anxiety due to the pandemic?
 
Anxiety is F41.9 - there hasn't been any more specific code created, that I'm aware of, to report that it is related to the pandemic. There are codes for reaction to stress in the F43 and Z73 sections that you could potentially report, but the provider would need to document the anxiety as being such in order to use these.
