About A69.2
A69.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Lyme disease. It belongs to category A69 (other spirochetal infections), block A65-A69 (other spirochetal 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 5 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: A69.20 (unspecified), A69.21 (disease), A69.22 (disease), A69.23 (disease) and A69.29 (disease).
