ICD-10-CM Code A04.1
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection

BILLABLE
Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.
| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

A04.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code A041 is used to code Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a type of Escherichia coli and the leading bacterial cause of diarrhea in the developing world, as well as the most common cause of travelers' diarrhea. Insufficient data exist, but conservative estimates suggest that each year, approximately 210 million cases and 380,000 deaths occur, mostly in children, from ETEC. A number of pathogenic isolates are termed ETEC, but the main hallmarks of this type of bacteria are expression of one or more enterotoxins and presence of fimbriae used for attachment to host intestinal cells.
