Recommended ICD 10 - CM Codes PrEP and PEP
Recommended ICD 10 - CM Codes
PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) and PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis)
The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) coding system does not designate
specific billing codes for PrEP or PEP related services. The New York State Department of Health and the New York City
Department of Health and Mental Hygiene recommend the use of the following ICD-10-CM codes for PrEP and PEP related
outpatient services.
VISITS: All office visits must include a ¡°principal diagnosis/first-listed condition¡± to be billable. Z20.6, bolded below, is classified
as an ¡°acceptable principal diagnosis¡± in the ICD-10-CM system. Always include Z20.6 when coding PrEP or PEP visits.
If an insurer requires additional coding clarifying a patient¡¯s risk, Z20.2 (sexual exposure risk) and F19.20 (injection drug use
exposure risk) can be added. These codes avoid the use of the Z72.x codes that are considered stigmatizing because they indicate
¡°problems related to lifestyle.¡±
TESTS: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), sexually transmitted infections, hepatitis c virus (HCV) and other tests associated
with PrEP and PEP are related to the patient¡¯s ongoing risk of infection, even if the patient is asymptomatic. Screening tests are
ordered at initial visit. Subsequent visits use ¡®contact with¡¯ codes. Tests which are ordered to evaluate the patient for conditions
potentially associated with long-term use of PrEP medication should include the code Z79.899.
