Wiki H1n1 icd-9 code

[MsMaddy]

Can someone tell me what is the H1N1 ICD-9 CODE. Is it 488.1 or is it v code?


Thanks in advance

H1n1

As of Oct 1, 488.1 is the code for active infection of H1N1. The V04.81 would be the code to use for the prophylactic injection. Anyone else have any other info?
