Lipoprotein deficiency. E78.6 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes.
Hypoalphalipoproteinemia is a high-density lipoprotein deficiency, inherited in an autosomal dominant manner.
Inclusion Terms are a list of concepts for which a specific code is used. The list of Inclusion Terms is useful for determining the correct code in some cases, but the list is not necessarily exhaustive.

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 272.5 was previously used, E78.6 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
Abetalipoproteinemia is an inherited disorder that impairs the normal absorption of fats and certain vitamins from the diet. Many of the signs and symptoms of abetalipoproteinemia result from a severe shortage (deficiency) of fat-soluble vitamins (vitamins A, E, and K). The signs and symptoms of this condition primarily affect the gastrointestinal system, eyes, nervous system, and blood.
Individuals with abetalipoproteinemia usually have a low number of red blood cells (anemia) with abnormally star-shaped red blood cells (acanthocytosis) and have difficulty forming blood clots, which can cause abnormal bleeding. In some cases, a condition called fatty liver develops, which can cause liver damage.
HYPOALPHALIPOPROTEINEMIAS-. conditions with abnormally low levels of alpha lipoproteins high density lipoproteins in the blood. hypoalphalipoproteinemia can be associated with mutations in genes encoding apolipoprotein a i; lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase; and atp binding cassette transporters.
Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL) is a disorder that impairs the body's ability to absorb and transport fats. This condition is characterized by low levels of a fat-like substance called cholesterol in the blood.
Lipid metabolism disorders, such as Gaucher disease and Tay-Sachs disease, involve lipids. Lipids are fats or fat-like substances. They include oils, fatty acids, waxes, and cholesterol. If you have one of these disorders, you may not have enough enzymes to break down lipids. Or the enzymes may not work properly and your body can't convert the fats into energy. They cause a harmful amount of lipids to build up in your body. Over time, that can damage your cells and tissues, especially in the brain, peripheral nervous system, liver, spleen, and bone marrow. Many of these disorders can be very serious, or sometimes even fatal.
They can also experience a loss of certain reflexes, impaired speech (dysarthria), tremors or other involuntary movements (motor tics), a loss of sensation in the extremities (peripheral neuropathy), or muscle weakness.
Your body can use this fuel right away, or it can store the energy in your body tissues. If you have a metabolic disorder, something goes wrong with this process . Lipid metabolism disorders, such as Gaucher disease and Tay-Sachs disease, involve lipids.
It is the classification and codification of diseases and a wide variety of signs, symptoms, abnormal findings, allegations, social circumstances, and causes.

Although FH is one of the most common life-threatening genetic diseases affecting all races and ethnicities, there was no specific diagnostic code to differentiate FH from other forms of hypercholesterolemia. It was E78.00. This did not encourage family screening. As we already know, patients with FH require early and more aggressive treatment, and family screening is essential for this early diagnosis and treatment.
Hypercholesteremia or high (elevated) cholesterol. Hyperlipoproteinemia low-density-lipoprotein-type (LDL) So, when total cholesterol is high the code is E78.00 ; when LDL is high the code is also E78.00. E78.1 for:

ICD-10 was developed in 1992 and was intended to track mortality statistics. The WHO publishes minor annual updates and major updates every three years. Subsequently, some countries have created their own ICD-10 code extensions.
In response to the submission of the FH Foundation, two ICD-10 codes for Familial Hypercholesterolemia have been approved and became effective on October 1, 2016.
The ICD-10 list originates from the “List of causes of death”, the first edition of which was published by the International Institute of Statistics in 1893. The WHO took charge of it in 1948, the sixth edition, the first to include causes of morbidity.
