B96.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of mycoplasma pneumoniae [M. pneumoniae] as the cause of diseases classified elsewhere. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.


The ICD code B960 is used to code Mycoplasma pneumonia

Mycoplasma pneumonia (also known as "walking pneumonia" because its patients can sometimes continue to walk about while suffering from its symptoms) is a form of bacterial pneumonia caused by the bacterial species Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
