BILLABLE

| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016

A84.8 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of other tick-borne viral encephalitis. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code A848 is used to code Louping ill

Louping-ill (also known as Ovine Encephalomyelitis, Infectious Encephalomyelitis of Sheep, Trembling-ill) is an acute viral disease primarily of sheep that is characterized by a biphasic fever, depression, ataxia, muscular incoordination, tremors, posterior paralysis, coma, and death. Louping-ill is a tick-transmitted disease whose occurrence is closely related to the distribution of the primary vector, the sheep tick Ixodes ricinus. It also causes disease in red grouse, and can affect humans. The name 'louping-ill' is derived from an old Scottish word describing the effect of the disease in sheep whereby they 'loup' or spring into the air.
