A98.4 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of ebola virus disease. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code A984 is used to code Ebola virus disease

ebola virus disease (evd; also ebola hemorrhagic fever, or ehf), or simply ebola, is a viral hemorrhagic fever of humans and other primates caused by ebolaviruses. signs and symptoms typically start between two days and three weeks after contracting the virus with a fever, sore throat, muscular pain, and headaches. then, vomiting, diarrhea and rash usually follow, along with decreased function of the liver and kidneys. at this time some people begin to bleed both internally and externally. the disease has a high risk of death, killing between 25 and 90 percent of those infected, with an average of about 50 percent. this is often due to low blood pressure from fluid loss, and typically follows six to sixteen days after symptoms appear.
