About B47

B47 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for mycetoma. 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 3 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: B47.0 (Eumycetoma), B47.1 (Actinomycetoma) and B47.9 (unspecified).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of B47, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: pulmonary mycetoma (J4B).

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