Bilirubin, Direct - Measurement of the levels of bilirubin is used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, hemolytic, hematologic, and metabolic disorders, including hepatitis and gall bladder obstruction. The assessment of direct bilirubin is helpful in the differentiation of hepatic disorders.

E80. 7 - Disorder of bilirubin metabolism, unspecified. ICD-10-CM.
Bilirubin attached by the liver to glucuronic acid, a glucose-derived acid, is called direct, or conjugated, bilirubin. Bilirubin not attached to glucuronic acid is called indirect, or unconjugated, bilirubin. All the bilirubin in your blood together is called total bilirubin.
This is a blood test that measures the amount of a substance called bilirubin. This test is used to find out how well your liver is working. It is often part of a panel of tests that measure liver function. A small amount of bilirubin in your blood is normal, but a high level may be a sign of liver disease.
This transformation makes bilirubin water-soluble; it can then be excreted in bile and eliminated in the stool [2]. Bilirubin in this second phase is called “direct” or “conjugated” bilirubin. Total bilirubin is the sum of your direct and indirect bilirubin levels.
Some bilirubin is bound to a certain protein (albumin) in the blood. This type of bilirubin is called unconjugated, or indirect, bilirubin. In the liver, bilirubin is changed into a form that your body can get rid of. This is called conjugated bilirubin or direct bilirubin.
Conjugated bilirubin also is called direct bilirubin because it reacts directly with the reagent, and unconjugated bilirubin is called indirect because it has to be solubilized first.
A common use of this test is to measure bilirubin levels in newborns to check for infant jaundice. Determine whether there might be blockage in your bile ducts, in either the liver or the gallbladder. Help detect liver disease, particularly hepatitis, or monitor its progression.
In adults, an elevated level of direct bilirubin typically points to a blockage or disease of the liver, bile ducts, or gallbladder. Possible diseases include: viral hepatitis, cancer of the liver, and alcoholic liver disease. Blockages are usually caused by gallstones, tumors, or scarring.
Normal Results A normal level is: Direct (also called conjugated) bilirubin: less than 0.3 mg/dL (less than 5.1 µmol/L) Total bilirubin: 0.1 to 1.2 mg/dL (1.71 to 20.5 µmol/L)
To report this service, you will need to use codes 82247, “Bilirubin; total,” and 82248, “Bilirubin; direct.” On a related note, CPT 2001 includes a new code, 88400, for “Bilirubin, total, transcutaneous.” This describes a non-invasive procedure for the detection of hyperbilirubinemia using transcutaneous ...
Adult valuesTotal bilirubin = 0.3 to 1.0 mg/dL or 5.1 to 17.0 mmol/L.Direct bilirubin (conjugated bilirubin) = 0.1 to 0.3 mg/dL or 1.0 to 5.1 mmol/L.Indirect bilirubin (unconjugated bilirubin) = (total bilirubin minus direct bilirubin level) = 0.2 to 0.7 mg/dL or 3.4 to 11.9 mmol/L.Total bilirubin in:
To calculate Indirect bilirubin easily, take Total Bilirubin level and subtract the Direct Bilirubin level from it. Indirect bilirubin: 0.2-0.7 mg/dL (estimated range; you still have to do the calculation.)
In adults, an elevated level of direct bilirubin typically points to a blockage or disease of the liver, bile ducts, or gallbladder. Possible diseases include: viral hepatitis, cancer of the liver, and alcoholic liver disease. Blockages are usually caused by gallstones, tumors, or scarring.
If too much bilirubin is in your bloodstream it can cause jaundice, which can make your skin and eyes turn yellow. The results of the bilirubin test and signs of jaundice can help your doctor check your liver and determine if you have liver disease. A bilirubin test is also used to determine jaundice in newborns.
Normal Results A normal level is: Direct (also called conjugated) bilirubin: less than 0.3 mg/dL (less than 5.1 µmol/L) Total bilirubin: 0.1 to 1.2 mg/dL (1.71 to 20.5 µmol/L)
The conjugated (direct) bilirubin level is often elevated by alcohol, infectious hepatitis, drug reactions, and autoimmune disorders. Posthepatic disorders also can cause conjugated hyperbilirubinemia.
A benign, autosomally recessive inherited hyperbilirubinemia characterized by the presence of a dark pigment in the centrilobular region of the liver cells. There is a functional defect in biliary excretion of bilirubin, cholephilic dyes, and porphyrins.

What is the correct ICD-10 code for “elevated bilirubin”? The coding index leads to ICD-10 code R17 using the term “elevated”. This code is located in Chapter 18, which is for symptoms, sign, and abnormal results.

In medicine, bilirubinuria is an abnormality where conjugated bilirubin is detected in the urine.
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.

The increase in total bilirubin associated with obstructive jaundice is primarily due to the direct (conjugated) fraction . Both direct and indirect bilirubin are increased in the serum with hepatitis.
