ICD-10-CM Code for Long term (current) use of anticoagulants Z79. 01.
01 Long term (current) use of anticoagulants.
'Subtherapeutic INR levels' means that the patient is underwarfarinised, therefore as per ACS 0303 the correct code to assign is D68. 8 Other specified coagulation defects.
Long term (current) use of anticoagulants Z79. 01 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 Z79. 01 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The Coding Clinic states to assign D68. 32 in instances where there was bleeding due to Coumadin.
NCD - Partial ThromboplastinTime (PTT) (190.16)
Anticoagulant treatment reduces recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) by about 90% after index pulmonary embolism. Whether anticoagulant treatment also reduces mortality in these patients remains to be defined. The main counterbalance for life long anticoagulation is the risk for anticoagulants-associated bleeding.
Warfarin (brand name: Jantoven) is a prescription medication that interferes with normal blood clotting (coagulation). It is also called an anticoagulant. Warfarin is sold under the brand name Coumadin in some countries; however, this brand is no longer available in the United States or Canada.
1. Less than adequately treated. 2. Taking a drug with a blood level below a desired treatment range. Patients using warfarin for atrial fibrillation, for example, have subtherapeutic anticoagulation when their international normalized ratio (INR) is below 2.0.
1: Abnormal coagulation profile.
Raised INR can be coded with the ICD-10 code R79. 8 Other specified abnormal findings of blood chemistry.
For codes less than 6 characters that require a 7th character a placeholder 'X' should be assigned for all characters less than 6. The 7th character must always be the 7th position of a code. E.g. The ICD-10-CM code T67.4 (Heat exhaustion due to salt depletion) requires an Episode of Care identifier.
