ICD-10 Code A54.03 – Gonococcal cervicitis, unspecified (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Gonococcal cervicitis, unspecified is A54.03.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A54.03 – Gonococcal cervicitis, unspecified

What it is

This code identifies gonococcal infection of the cervix when the record does not specify an exact type or complication. Use it for cervical gonorrhea documented by the clinician.

Clinical signs

Clinical features may include mucopurulent cervical discharge, cervicitis, pelvic discomfort, or postcoital bleeding. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents gonococcal cervicitis and does not name a more specific site or form. It also fits confirmed cervical gonorrhea with unspecified detail in the note. If the record identifies another anatomic site or a different gonococcal complication, code that condition instead.

Do not use for

Do not use it for nongonococcal cervicitis or for gonorrhea limited to another site, such as urethra or rectum. Check documentation if the organism is not confirmed.

Coding tip

Query for the organism and site when the note says only “cervicitis” or “STD,” because A54.03 requires gonococcal cervical infection.
