Urogenital trichomoniasis, unspecified

This code represents an infection of the genitourinary tract caused by the parasite Trichomonas vaginalis, where the specific site of infection (e.g., urethritis, vaginitis) is not documented. It indicates the presence of trichomoniasis affecting the urogenital system without further anatomical specificity.

Use this code when the medical record confirms a diagnosis of urogenital trichomoniasis, but the provider has not specified the exact anatomical location of the infection. Documentation supporting this code would include a positive Trichomonas vaginalis test (e.g., wet mount, NAAT) or a physician's diagnosis of urogenital trichomoniasis without further detail.

• Do not use this code if the documentation specifies the site of infection (e.g., vaginitis due to trichomoniasis).
• Always review the medical record for more specific documentation of the infection site to ensure the most precise code is selected.
• Consider co-occurring sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and code them separately if documented.
