Diabetes type 1 with hyperlipidemia; Familial combined hyperlipidemia; Familial hyperalphalipoproteinemia; Hyperalphalipoproteinemia, familial; Hyperlipidemia due to type 1 diabetes mellitus; Hyperlipidemia, familial combined ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code E78.5 [convert to ICD-9-CM]
Highest specificity code should be assigned in case of hyperlipidemia. For example, if both hypercholesterolemia and mixed hyperlipidemia are documented in assessment then only one code should be coded, that is mixed hyperlipidemia. 58 year old male with known history of DM2, hypertension and CAD presents for an initial visit.
Hyperlipidemias may basically be classified as either familial (also called primary) caused by specific genetic abnormalities, or acquired (also called secondary) when resulting from another underlying disorder that leads to alterations in plasma lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. Also, hyperlipidemia may be idiopathic, that is, without known cause.
The physician will use the lipid panel to make a hyperlipidemia diagnosis. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that every person get a cholesterol test starting at the age of 20. In certain cases, cholesterol test may be appropriate for children and adolescents.
The correct code for the elevated lipids would be 272.8 or 272.9.

A lipid panel (CPT code 80061) at a yearly interval will usually be adequate while measurement of the serum total cholesterol (CPT code 82465) or a measured LDL (CPT code 83721) should suffice for interim visits if the patient does not have hypertriglyceridemia (for example, ICD-9-CM code 272.1, Pure hyperglyceridemia) ...
You wouldn't code them together. Cholesterol is a type of lipid. If the provider diagnosed pure hypercholesterolemia, you would code that. It is more specific than hyperlipidemia, unspecified.
E78. 5 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 E78.
Hyperlipidemia, also known as dyslipidemia or high cholesterol, means you have too many lipids (fats) in your blood.
80061 Lipid panel A lipid panel includes the following tests: total serum cholesterol (82465), high–density cholesterol (HDL cholesterol) by direct measurement (83718), and triglycerides (84478).
In addition, codes V81. 0, V81. 1 and V81. 2 are appropriately added to the list of covered diagnosis codes for lipid tests 80061, 82465, 83718 and 84478 under the cardiovascular screening benefit (section 1861(xx)).
E78.2ICD-10 Code for Mixed hyperlipidemia- E78. 2- Codify by AAPC.
Familial combined hyperlipidemia is a disorder that is passed down through families. It causes high cholesterol and high blood triglycerides.
E78. 2 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 E78. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021.
Dyslipidemia is the imbalance of lipids such as cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, (LDL-C), triglycerides, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL). This condition can result from diet, tobacco exposure, or genetic and can lead to cardiovascular disease with severe complications.
Dyslipidemia is known to promote atherosclerosis. It is a complex disease and is a major risk factor for adverse cardiovascular events. High levels of low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) and low levels of high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) are associated with myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke.
Secondary dyslipidemia is caused by lifestyle factors or medical conditions that interfere with blood lipid levels over time. Common causes of secondary dyslipidemia include: obesity, especially excess weight around the waist. diabetes.
Dyslipidemia is a common feature of diabetes [20]. There is an association between atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes [21, 22].
Hyperlipidemia can occur due to food habit, secondary to any other underlying disease, genetic abnormalities or idiopathic (unknown cause). If it is secondary to any other disease, both primary and secondary should be coded, remember to apply combination coding guidelines if applicable.
Hence increase in the level of lipids is risk factors for cardiovascular problems and stroke. It may even cause obesity, fat deposits on skin, enlargement of organs like spleen, pancreas or liver. Lipid Panel – It is a lab test using specimen as blood to find any type of fat increase in blood.
Hyperlipidemia refers to increase in any type of lipid (fat) in blood. We use common name “high cholesterol” instead of saying hyperlipidemia. Though not in detail, it is important to understand the basics of lipids to code to the highest specificity. There are two types of lipids: Triglycerides. Cholesterol.
