There are various types of lung diseases such as emphysema, infections such as influenza, pneumonia, and tuberculosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pulmonary fibrosis, chronic bronchitis, asthma, lung cancer, and more.

They can rely on pulmonary medical coding services for accurate coding and claims submission.
