ICD-10 Code A67.9 – Pinta, unspecified (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A67.9 – Pinta, unspecified
What it is
A67.9 identifies pinta when the record does not specify the stage or other details. It is used for this chronic treponemal skin infection when documentation is limited.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Pinta may present with skin lesions and later pigmentary changes, but you should code only what is clearly documented.
When to use this code
Use A67.9 when the provider documents pinta but does not specify a more precise form or stage. It also fits charts that mention the condition without enough detail for a more specific code. If the note includes additional descriptors, check documentation before assigning this unspecified code.
Do not use for
Do not use this code when the record specifies another treponemal infection or a more detailed pinta code. If the diagnosis is uncertain or not documented as pinta, check documentation.
Coding tip
Assign A67.9 only when the provider clearly documents pinta and no further specificity is available.
