From ICD-10: For encounters for routine laboratory/radiology testing in the absence of any signs, symptoms, or associated diagnosis, assign Z01. 89, Encounter for other specified special examinations.
transferrin - measures levels of the iron carrier; total iron binding capacity (TIBC) - measures the transferrin capacity to bind iron; serum ferritin - measures the body's ability to store iron.
A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of vitamin d in the diet, insufficient production of vitamin d in the skin, inadequate absorption of vitamin d from the diet, or abnormal conversion of vitamin d to its bioactive metabolites.
