ICD-10 Code A95 – Yellow fever (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A95 – Yellow fever
What it is
A95 identifies yellow fever, a mosquito-borne viral disease that can cause acute fever and systemic illness. Use it for confirmed or documented yellow fever cases.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Typical findings may include fever, headache, muscle pain, nausea, and jaundice, with severe cases showing bleeding or organ dysfunction.
When to use this code
Use A95 when the record clearly documents yellow fever as the diagnosis. It may appear in imported infection cases, travel-related illness, or confirmed arboviral disease evaluations. If the provider only suspects viral fever, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use A95 for other mosquito-borne fevers, viral hepatitis, or nonspecific febrile illness. If the chart does not confirm yellow fever, code the documented condition instead.
Coding tip
Verify the provider’s final diagnosis and travel or exposure history before assigning A95.
