Hello, I need an ICD 10 code for Tick bite, Dr. not stating that this is Tick bite fever although patient has a fever. Does Dr. need to state that this is related ?
Thanks,
Carol
 
Yes, provider would need to link the tick bit to the fever, you cant assume.

Per the index


Bite > insect - see Bite, by site, superficial, insect
