Impaired glucose tolerance (oral)
In ICD-10-CM, chapter 4, "Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E89)," includes a separate subchapter (block), Diabetes mellitus E08-E13, with the categories:
Z13.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z13.1 - other international versions of ICD-10 Z13.1 may differ.
ICD 10-cm Code for Genetic Diabetes. E13 is an ICD-10-CM code that will be used to specify diabetes mellitus caused by genetic defects of beta-cell-function or due to genetic defects in the insulin action.
icd 10 diabetes insipidus Insulin. Insulin is a hormone that allows glucose (sugar) – the body’s main fuel – to enter the cells and to be used for energy. Insulin can’t be taken orally because your stomach will digest it. It’s given as an injection using a small needle just under the skin. The places to inject are usually the thighs, buttocks and abdomen (belly).
Encounter for screening for diabetes mellitus Z13. 1 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 Z13. 1 became effective on October 1, 2021.
You would assign ICD-10 code Z13. 1, Encounter for screening for diabetes mellitus. This code can be found under “Screening” in the Alphabetical Index of the ICD-10 book.
ICD-10 Code for Other abnormal glucose- R73. 09- Codify by AAPC.
HCPCS code E0607 (Blood glucose monitors) is limited to a quantity of 1 every 3 years when dispensed for treatment of diabetes mellitus.
9.
A screening colonoscopy should be reported with the following International Classification of Diseases, 10th edition (ICD-10) codes: Z12. 11: Encounter for screening for malignant neoplasm of the colon.
09: Other abnormal glucose.
HbA1c is widely accepted as medically necessary for the management and control of patients with diabetes. It is also valuable to assess hyperglycemia, a history of hyperglycemia or dangerous hypoglycemia.
Code R53. 83 is the diagnosis code used for Other Fatigue. It is a condition marked by drowsiness and an unusual lack of energy and mental alertness. It can be caused by many things, including illness, injury, or drugs.
Another important point to consider is the fact that if a registered nurse or a certified diabetic educator provides the services associated with CPT code 95250 under proper physician supervision, the supervising physician can bill for those services. The CPT code 95251 is for analysis and interpretation of CGM data.
Description. A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) is a minimally invasive device that is designed to measure and record glucose levels continuously and automatically in a patient. The device measures glucose values in the interstitial fluid of subcutaneous tissue.
Procedure codes 95250 and 95251 require a minimum of 72 hours of data and may be reimbursed up to four times per year but may not be reimbursed more than once per month.
This condition is seen frequently in diabetes mellitus, but also occurs with other diseases and malnutrition. Pre-diabetes means you have blood glucose levels that are higher than normal but not high enough to be called diabetes. Glucose comes from the foods you eat.
State of latent impairment of carbohydrate metabolism in which the criteria for diabetes mellitus are not all satisfied; sometimes controllable by diet alone; called also impaired glucose tolerance and impaired fasting glucose. The time period before the development of symptomatic diabetes.
Too much glucose in your blood can damage your body over time. If you have pre-diabetes, you are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.most people with pre-diabetes don't have any symptoms. Your doctor can test your blood to find out if your blood glucose levels are higher than normal.

Contractors may specify Bill Types to help providers identify those Bill Types typically used to report this service. Absence of a Bill Type does not guarantee that the article does not apply to that Bill Type.
Contractors may specify Revenue Codes to help providers identify those Revenue Codes typically used to report this service. In most instances Revenue Codes are purely advisory. Unless specified in the article, services reported under other Revenue Codes are equally subject to this coverage determination.
Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices measure glucose in the interstitial fluid, not capillary blood, providing interstitial glucose readings every few minutes. CGM systems are composed of several components — disposable sensors that are inserted in the subcutaneous tissue, a transmitter that relays information to the receiver, and a receiver where the information is displayed.
Consequently, CGM devices are considered precautionary equipment. The Medicare Durable Medical Equipment Benefit excludes precautionary items from coverage; therefore, claims for CGM systems are denied as statutorily non-covered, no benefit.
