ICD-10 Code A92.8 – Other specified mosquito-borne viral fevers (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide

The ICD-10 code for Other specified mosquito-borne viral fevers is A92.8.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code A92.8 – Other specified mosquito-borne viral fevers

What it is

A92.8 identifies mosquito-borne viral fevers that do not fit a more specific ICD-10 category. Use it when the provider documents a mosquito-transmitted viral fever but names no better-defined diagnosis.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Typical viral fever findings may include acute fever, headache, malaise, and muscle aches, but the exact syndrome depends on the specific mosquito-borne virus.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record clearly states a mosquito-borne viral fever and no specific virus or named disease is documented. It also applies when the provider documents an unspecified or other specified mosquito-borne viral fever rather than a more detailed diagnosis.

Do not use for

Do not use A92.8 if the chart identifies a more specific mosquito-borne infection with its own code. Check documentation; avoid using it for non-mosquito viral illnesses or when the diagnosis is only suspected.

Coding tip

Look for the exact organism or disease name in the assessment; if it is not documented, A92.8 may be the best available choice.
