| ICD-10 from 2011 - 2016 E78.1 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of pure hyperglyceridemia. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. Triglyceride, which cause hypertriglyceridemia at high level
Hyperlipidemia, unspecified. E78.5 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2018/2019 edition of ICD-10-CM E78.5 became effective on October 1, 2018.
Hyperlipidemia ICD 10 Code Description; E78.0: Pure hypercholesterolemia group A · E78.00: Pure hypercholesterolemia Fredrickson's hyperlipoproteinemia, type Iia Hyperbetalipoproteinemia (Pure) hypercholesterolemia NOS · E78.01: Familial hypercholesterolemia: E78.1: Hyperlipidemia, group B Pure hyperglyceredemia
Hypertriglyceridemia denotes high (hyper-) blood levels (-emia) of triglycerides, the most abundant fatty molecule in most organisms. Elevated levels of triglycerides are associated with atherosclerosis, even in the absence of hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol levels), and predispose to cardiovascular disease.
For example, while 272.1 includes “hypertriglyceridemia, essential,” E78. 1 includes “elevated fasting triglycerides.” Under E78....ICD-9-CM Codes:272.0, Pure hypercholesterolemia.272.1, Pure hyperglyceridemia.272.2, Mixed hyperlipidemia.272.4, Other and unspecified hyperlipidemia.
272.1ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 272.1 : Pure hyperglyceridemia.
Primary hypertriglyceridemia, or type 4 hyperlipidemia has high concentration of triglycerides in the blood. It is also known as hypertriglyceridemia (or pure hypertriglyceridemia). Hypertriglyceridemia denotes high (hyper-) blood levels (-emia) of triglycerides, the most abundant fatty molecule in most organisms.
Hyperlipidemias are also classified according to which types of lipids are elevated, that is hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia or both in combined hyperlipidemia. Elevated levels of Lipoprotein(a) may also be classified as a form of hyperlipidemia.
Expert. You wouldn't code them together. Cholesterol is a type of lipid. If the provider diagnosed pure hypercholesterolemia, you would code that.
Hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol) means your blood has too many lipids (fats) in it. These can add up and lead to blockages in your blood vessels. This is why high cholesterol can put you at risk for a stroke or heart attack.

Severe hypertriglyceridemia, defined as 1000–1999 mg/dl, although not causative of pancreatitis, indicates risk for development of very severe hypertriglyceridemia (10, 11).
Familial hypertriglyceridemia (type IV familial dyslipidemia) is a disorder characterized by the overproduction of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) from the liver. As a result, the patient will have an excessive number of triglycerides and VLDL on the lipid profile that can cause acute pancreatitis.
Hypertriglyceridemia, a condition in which triglyceride levels are elevated, is a common disorder in the United States. It is often caused or exacerbated by uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, obesity, and sedentary habits, all of which are more prevalent in industrialized societies than in developing nations.
The 2018 ACC/AHA classifies moderate hypertriglyceridemia as 150-499 mg/dL and severe hypertriglyceridemia as 500 mg/dL or more. The ESC/EAS guideline also classifies fasting TGs of <150 mg/dL (1.7 mmol/L) as desirable, noting that about one-third of individuals have levels 150 mg/dL or above.
There are five types of primary hyperlipoproteinemia:Type 1 is an inherited condition. ... Type 2 runs in families. ... Type 3 is a recessively inherited disorder in which intermediate-density lipoproteins (IDL) accumulate in your blood. ... Type 4 is a dominantly inherited disorder. ... Type 5 runs in families.
Hypertriglyceridemia denotes high (hyper-) blood levels (-emia) of triglycerides, the most abundant fatty molecule in most organisms. Elevated levels of triglycerides are associated with atherosclerosis, even in the absence of hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol levels), and predispose to cardiovascular disease.

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 272.1 was previously used, E78.1 is the appropriate modern ICD10 code.
E78.1 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Pure hyperglyceridemia . 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 .
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. See also:
Have you ever thought what our body does with extra calories it gets from food.These are converted to triglycerides and stored in fat cells. When needed, mostly in between meals, it is utilized as energy. So, it is very clear when the amount of extra calorie increases in turn the level of triglycerides also increases.
Body cells require cholesterol for its growth. A part of this is made by liver and another part comes from foods we eat. Altogether when body gets extra cholesterol, it gets stored in blood vessels.
