Z13.0 is a valid billable ICD-10 diagnosis code for Encounter for screening for diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism. It is found in the 2019 version of the ICD-10 Clinical Modification (CM) and can be used in all HIPAA-covered transactions from Oct 01, 2018 - Sep 30, 2019.
The specific amount you’ll owe may depend on several things, like:
Prediabetes
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:
The ICD-10-CM is a catalog of diagnosis codes used by medical professionals for medical coding and reporting in health care settings. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) maintain the catalog in the U.S. releasing yearly updates.
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.
NCD 190.15 4. In some patients presenting with certain signs, symptoms or diseases, a single CBC may be appropriate.
ICD-10-CM Code for Encounter for preprocedural laboratory examination Z01. 812.
Original Medicare does cover blood tests when they are ordered by a doctor or other health care professional to test for, diagnose or monitor a disease or condition. The blood test must be deemed medically necessary in order to be covered by Medicare.

A screening code may be the first-listed code if the reason for the visit is specifically the screening exam. A screening Z code also may be used as an additional code if the screening is done during an office visit for other problems. A procedure code is required to confirm the screening was performed.
2013 ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 790.99 : Other nonspecific findings on examination of blood.
Encounter for screening for diabetes mellitus 1 Z13.1 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. 2 The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM Z13.1 became effective on October 1, 2020. 3 This is the American ICD-10-CM version of Z13.1 - other international versions of ICD-10 Z13.1 may differ.
Screening is the testing for disease or disease precursors in asymptomatic individuals so that early detection and treatment can be provided for those who test positive for the disease. Type 1 Excludes. encounter for diagnostic examination-code to sign or symptom. Encounter for screening for other diseases and disorders.
A complete blood count consists of measuring a blood specimen for levels of hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Also, a differential white blood cell (WBC) count measures the percentages of different types of white blood cells.
National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI) edits have been established to promote correct coding and prevent inappropriate payments. For example, test codes 85027 and 85004 should not be billed along with code 85025 which represents the bundled testing service.
Billing modifiers can assist in reporting additional medically necessary CBC component test (s) or bundling testing service for the same patient on the same date of service, such as modifier -91 Repeat clinical laboratory test. Indications and Limitations.

Blood typing is a screening test to determine blood groups and Rh antigen for blood transfusion and pregnancy. The four blood groups A, B, O, and AB are determined by the presence of antigens A and B or their absence (O) on a patient's red blood cells. In addition to ABO grouping, most immunohematology testing includes evaluation of Rh typing tests for Rh (D) antigen. Blood cells that express Rh (D) antigen are Rh positive. Red blood cells found lacking Rh (D) are considered Rh negative. Rh typing is also important during pregnancy because of the potential for mother and fetus Rh incompatiblity. If the mother is Rh negative but the father is Rh positive, the fetus may be positive for the Rh antigen. As a result, the mother’s body could develop antibodies against the Rh antigen. These antibodies may cross the placenta and cause destruction of the baby’s red blood cells, resulting in a condition known as hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn.
Testing should be performed within 24 hours of collection; however, some laboratories have extended the stability out to 5-7 days. Turnaround Time: Same day, usually. Interpretation: Blood typing determines if the patient is group A, B, AB, or O and Rh negative or positive.
In pregnant women, the results indicate whether she is Rh positive or negative and whether she may be a candidate for receiving Rh immune globulin (RhoGAM) to prevent her from potentially developing antibodies against fetal red blood cells. Note: Some pregnant women might express weak D antigen.
For example, group O Rh negative blood may be given to either group A or B or AB recipients, either Rh positive or Rh negative. Some situations, for example recent transfusion, may require more time than usual to resolve and may require communication between the laboratory and patient's caregiver.
