Why ICD-10 codes are important
Secondary polycythemia is defined as an absolute increase in red blood cell mass that is caused by enhanced stimulation of red blood cell production. In contrast, polycythemia vera is characterized by bone marrow with an inherent increased proliferative activity.
Outlook. Secondary polycythemia (erythrocytosis) is a rare condition that causes your blood to thicken and increases the risk of stroke. It's usually due to an underlying condition, which can range in severity from sleep apnea to serious heart disease.
D45 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM D45 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A secondary user of ICD-9-CM codes is someone who uses already coded data from hospitals, health care providers, or health plans to conduct surveillance and/or research activities. Public health is largely a secondary user of coded data.
Primary polycythemia is caused by an abnormality of the cells in the bone marrow that form red blood cells. Secondary polycythemia is caused by a disorder originating outside of the bone marrow that causes overstimulation of the normal bone marrow, leading to an overproduction of red blood cells.
What causes polycythaemia?Apparent polycythaemia. "Apparent polycythaemia" is where your red cell count is normal, but you have a reduced amount of a fluid called plasma in your blood, making it thicker. ... Relative polycythaemia. ... Absolute polycythaemia. ... Polycythaemia vera (PV) ... Secondary polycythaemia.
Erythrocytosis is sometimes referred to as polycythemia, but the conditions are slightly different: Erythrocytosis is an increase in RBCs relative to the volume of blood. Polycythemiais an increase in both RBC concentration and hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to the body's tissues.
Key points about polycythemia vera Polycythemia vera is a rare blood disorder in which there is an increase in all blood cells, particularly red blood cells. The increase in blood cells makes the blood thicker. Thick blood can lead to strokes or tissue and organ damage.

Identifying and Reporting Secondary Diagnoses It is up to the coder to identify the secondary or additional diagnoses. ICD-10 guidelines state that the entire medical record should be thoroughly reviewed to determine the specific reason for the encounter and the conditions treated.
Combination Codes: single code used to identify two diagnoses, or a diagnosis with a secondary process or manifestation, or a diagnosis with an associated complication.
For example, some Organizations serve areas in multiple parts of the country; as a result, the first code selected for their Geographical Area Served acts as the Primary code and any other code chosen subsequently is the Secondary code.
Polycythemia (also known as polycythaemia or polyglobulia) is a disease state in which the proportion of blood volume that is occupied by red blood cells increases. Blood volume proportions can be measured as hematocrit level. A hematocrit of >55% is seen in polycythemia.

The ICD-10-CM Alphabetical Index links the below-listed medical terms to the ICD code D75.1. Click on any term below to browse the alphabetical index.
This is the official exact match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that in all cases where the ICD9 code 289.0 was previously used, D75.1 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
D75.1 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Secondary polycythemia . It is found in the 2021 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2020 - Sep 30, 2021 .
When an Excludes2 note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together. A “code also” note instructs that two codes may be required to fully describe a condition, but this note does not provide sequencing direction. The sequencing depends on the circumstances of the encounter.
DO NOT include the decimal point when electronically filing claims as it may be rejected. Some clearinghouses may remove it for you but to avoid having a rejected claim due to an invalid ICD-10 code, do not include the decimal point when submitting claims electronically.

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.
All neoplasms are classified in this chapter, whether they are functionally active or not. An additional code from Chapter 4 may be used, to identify functional activity associated with any neoplasm. Morphology [Histology] Chapter 2 classifies neoplasms primarily by site (topography), with broad groupings for behavior, malignant, in situ, benign, ...
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.
