About A02.2
A02.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for localized salmonella infections. It belongs to category A02 (other salmonella infections), block A00-A09 (intestinal infectious diseases) and chapter 1 (certain infectious and parasitic diseases). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 7 subcodes must be used instead.
Within A02 (other salmonella infections), A02.2 is specifically for localized salmonella infections. Related codes cover salmonella enteritis (A02.0), salmonella sepsis (A02.1), other specified salmonella infections (A02.8) and salmonella infection, unspecified (A02.9).
To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: A02.20 (unspecified), A02.21 (meningitis), A02.22 (pneumonia), A02.23 (arthritis), A02.24 (osteomyelitis), A02.25 (pyelonephritis) and A02.29 (infection).
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
