Which immunodeficiency code should you use?
The Alphabetic Index lists 33 codes under Immunodeficiency. Which one applies depends on the qualifier documented in the record — the type, site, cause, or associated condition. Find the qualifier below, then verify the code in the Tabular List before using it.
