Definition. Anemia (NOS) is a decrease in the number of red blood cells. Many cancer patients develop anemia due to the cancer and/or cancer therapy. This condition may be referred to as Anemia in neoplastic disease or anemia of chronic disorders. The anemia by itself is not reportable.
Code D64. 9 is the diagnosis code used for Anemia, Unspecified, it falls under the category of diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism. Anemia specifically, is a condition in which the number of red blood cells is below normal.

Assign a code for all metastatic and primary sites documented by the physician. Only assign code C80. 0, Disseminated malignant neoplasm, unspecified, if the patient has advanced metastatic disease and the primary or secondary sites are not specified. Assign code C80.
Advanced prostate cancer means the cancer has spread from the prostate to other parts of the body. It is sometimes called metastatic prostate cancer. It most commonly spreads to lymph nodes in other parts of the body or to the bones. It can also spread to other organs.

your doctor will diagnose prostate cancer by feeling the prostate through the wall of the rectum or doing a blood test for prostate-specific antigen (psa). Other tests include ultrasound, x-rays, or a biopsy.treatment often depends on the stage of the cancer.
Risk factors for developing prostate cancer include being over 65 years of age, family history, being african-american, and some genetic changes.symptom s of prostate cancer may include. problems passing urine, such as pain, difficulty starting or stopping the stream, or dribbling. low back pain.
The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes. Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries.
Code sequencing matters when the admission/encounter is for management of anemia associated with malignancy, and the treatment is only for the anemia. According to ICD-10-CM guidelines, the appropriate code for the malignancy is sequenced as the principal (or first-listed) diagnosis, followed by the appropriate code for the anemia.
What if the reason for admission is for management of anemia associated with an adverse effect of chemotherapy or immunotherapy, and the treatment is only for the anemia? In this case, sequence the anemia code first, followed by the codes for the neoplasm and the adverse effect.
When a patient has chronic kidney disease (CKD) and anemia, assign the appropriate code from category N18 Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and code D63.1 Anemia in chronic kidney disease.
Anemia is very common but may present for any number of reasons. You must know the reason to code this condition correctly and with the utmost specificity. If it is not clear in the documentation, query the provider.
Symptoms and diagnosis: All types of anemia has similar symptoms like dizziness, pale skin, light-headedness, fast heart beat, shortness of breath. As a part of confirming the diagnosis doctor may ask your personal and family history and also do a Physical exam and blood test CBC (complete blood count).
Types of Anemia: We will see few types of anemia which are frequently seen in medical records. Iron deficiency anemia –Iron is needed in blood to make hemoglobin. Iron deficiency anemia occurs when there is very low amount of iron in blood. Mostly this can happen in woman due to heavy menstruation.
Anemia can occur due to many reasons such as blood loss, any other disease, during pregnancy, nutrition deficiency, drug induced and many more. So, there are plenty of Anemia ICD 10 codes and will discuss later on the same.
Blood loss anemia – One can become anemic due to severe blood loss. Once the cause is corrected that person becomes normal. This is termed as acute blood loss anemia. But sometimes, for example, in case of stomach ulcers, occult blood can happen for a long time.
Prostate cancer , also known as carcinoma of the prostate, is the development of cancer in the prostate, a gland in the male reproductive system. Most prostate cancers are slow growing; however, some grow relatively quickly. The cancer cells may spread from the prostate to other parts of the body, particularly the bones and lymph nodes. It may initially cause no symptoms. In later stages it can lead to difficulty urinating, blood in the urine, or pain in the pelvis, back or when urinating. A disease known as benign prostatic hyperplasia may produce similar symptoms. Other late symptoms may include feeling tired due to low levels of red blood cells.
The cancer cells may spread from the prostate to other parts of the body, particularly the bones and lymph nodes. It may initially cause no symptoms. In later stages it can lead to difficulty urinating, blood in the urine, or pain in the pelvis, back or when urinating.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion'), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere.
Sarcoma is a malignancy that begins in bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, blood vessels, or other connective or supportive tissue. Leukemia is a malignancy that starts in blood-forming tissue such as the bone marrow, and causes large numbers of abnormal blood cells to be produced and enter the blood.
The Table of Neoplasms should be used to identify the correct topography code. In a few cases, such as for malignant melanoma and certain neuroendocrine tumors, the morphology (histologic type) is included in the category and codes. Primary malignant neoplasms overlapping site boundaries.
A primary malignant neoplasm that overlaps two or more contiguous (next to each other) sites should be classified to the subcategory/code .8 ('overlapping lesion '), unless the combination is specifically indexed elsewhere. For multiple neoplasms of the same site that are not contiguous such as tumors in different quadrants of the same breast, codes for each site should be assigned.
There are also codes Z85.6, Personal history of leukemia, and Z85.79, Personal history of other malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissues. If the documentation is unclear as to whether the leukemia has achieved remission, the provider should be queried.
When a primary malignancy has been previously excised or eradicated from its site and there is no further treatment directed to that site and there is no evidence of any existing primary malignancy at that site, a code from category Z85, Personal history of malignant neoplasm, should be used to indicate the former site of the malignancy. Any mention of extension, invasion, or metastasis to another site is coded as a secondary malignant neoplasm to that site. The secondary site may be the principal or first-listed with the Z85 code used as a secondary code.
Chapter 2 of the ICD-10-CM contains the codes for most benign and all malignant neoplasms. Certain benign neoplasms , such as prostatic adenomas, may be found in the specific body system chapters. To properly code a neoplasm, it is necessary to determine from the record if the neoplasm is benign, in-situ, malignant, or of uncertain histologic behavior. If malignant, any secondary ( metastatic) sites should also be determined.
When a pregnant woman has a malignant neoplasm, a code from subcategory O9A.1 -, malignant neoplasm complicating pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium, should be sequenced first, followed by the appropriate code from Chapter 2 to indicate the type of neoplasm. Encounter for complication associated with a neoplasm.
When an encounter is for a pathological fracture due to a neoplasm, and the focus of treatment is the fracture, a code from subcategory M84.5, Pathological fracture in neoplastic disease, should be sequenced first, followed by the code for the neoplasm.
When a patient is admitted because of a primary neoplasm with metastasis and treatment is directed toward the secondary site only , the secondary neoplasm is designated as the principal diagnosis even though the primary malignancy is still present .
According to the 2018 ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, when the reason for the encounter is for management of anemia associated with the adverse effect of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or radiation therapy, the anemia code is sequenced first, followed by the appropriate code for the neoplasm and the adverse effect code (T45.1X5 Adverse effect of antineoplastic and immune suppressive drugs)#N#The same guideline applies to management of radiotherapy (Y84.2 Radiological procedure and radiotherapy as the cause of abnormal reaction of the patient, or of later complication, without mention of misadventure at the time of the procedure)#N#Example: A 68-year-old male with prostate cancer receiving chemotherapy visits his oncologist to receive a Procrit® injection for anemia caused by the chemotherapy.#N#ICD-10-CM coding:#N#D64.81 Anemia due to antineoplastic chemotherapy#N#C61 Malignant neoplasm of prostate#N#T45.1X5A Adverse effect of antineoplastic and immunosuppressive drugs, initial encounter#N#Remember: When the reason for the encounter is to manage anemia for an adverse effect, sequence the anemia code first, the malignancy code second, and adverse effect code third.#N#To learn about complete blood count testing for red blood cells, read the article “ Examine Testing for Complete Blood Counts without Platelets ” in AAPC’s Knowledge Center.
Symptoms include weakness and fatigue. The components of blood are red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), and platelets.
Vitamin B12 deficiency anemia. Folic acid deficiency anemia. Anemia may be a causal effect of another disease, such as a malignancy, or an adverse effect of treatment such as radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy.
