About B37

B37 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for candidiasis. It belongs to block B35-B49 (mycoses) and chapter 1 (certain infectious and parasitic diseases). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 10 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: B37.0 (stomatitis), B37.1 (candidiasis), B37.2 (of skin and nail), B37.3 (of vulva and vagina), B37.4 (of other urogenital sites), B37.5 (meningitis), B37.6 (endocarditis), B37.7 (sepsis) and 2 more.

Don't report B37 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: neonatal candidiasis (P37.5).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
