D63. 1 - Anemia in chronic kidney disease. ICD-10-CM.
Coding Tip 1, Anemia in chronic kidney disease (manifestation). This is assigned unless the anemia is specified as a different form and/or attributed to another condition. Much like the diabetes category, ICD-10-CM “In/With” convention assumes “due to.”
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.

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.
