ICD-10-CM Guidelines Simplified – Part 3

Chapter 1: Certain Infectious and Parasitic Diseases (A00–B99)

Feeling overwhelmed by the Chapter-Specific ICD-10-CM Guidelines?

You're not alone.

The ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines contain more than 20 chapter-specific sections, each with its own coding rules, sequencing instructions, and exceptions. Studying them all at once can be confusing—especially if you're preparing for the AAPC CPC® exam.

That's why I created the ICD-10-CM Guidelines Simplified series.

Instead of covering every chapter in one large book, this series breaks the guidelines down one chapter at a time using simple explanations, visuals, and practical examples.

This guide focuses exclusively on Chapter 1: Certain Infectious and Parasitic Diseases (A00–B99) and explains the official coding guidelines in a beginner-friendly, easy-to-understand format.
