ICD-10-CM Code G08
Intracranial and intraspinal phlebitis and thrombophlebitis

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

G08 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of intracranial and intraspinal phlebitis and thrombophlebitis. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.

Inclusion Terms:
Inclusion Terms
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.
Septic embolism of intracranial or intraspinal venous sinuses and veins
Septic endophlebitis of intracranial or intraspinal venous sinuses and veins
Septic phlebitis of intracranial or intraspinal venous sinuses and veins
Septic thrombophlebitis of intracranial or intraspinal venous sinuses and veins
Septic thrombosis of intracranial or intraspinal venous sinuses and veins
Code Type-1 Excludes:
Type-1 Excludes
Type-1 Excludes mean the conditions excluded are mutually exclusive and should never be coded together. Excludes 1 means "do not code here."
Intracranial phlebitis and thrombophlebitis complicating:
Abortion, ectopic or molar pregnancy - instead, use Section O00-O07, O08.7)
Pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O22.5, O87.3) - instead, use code O22.5
Nonpyogenic intracranial phlebitis and thrombophlebitis - instead, use code I67.6
Code Type-2 Excludes:
Type-2 Excludes
Type-2 Excludes means the excluded conditions are different, although they may appear similar. A patient may have both conditions, but one does not include the other. Excludes 2 means "not coded here."
Intracranial phlebitis and thrombophlebitis complicating nonpyogenic intraspinal phlebitis and thrombophlebitis - instead, use code G95.1

Equivalent ICD-9 Code GENERAL EQUIVALENCE MAPPINGS (GEM)

325
Phlebitis and thrombophlebitis of intracranial venous sinuses (exact match)

This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 325 was previously used, G08 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
