Type 1 diabetes mellitus with other diabetic ophthalmic complication. E10. 39 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 E10.
If a patient is admitted with uncontrolled diabetes and there are no other diabetic manifestations documented, then assign code 250.02 or 250.03.
ICD-10 code E11. 65 represents the appropriate diagnosis code for uncontrolled type 2 diabetes without complications.
Uncontrolled diabetes is diagnosed when your blood glucose (sugar) levels are 180 milliliters per deciliter (ml/dL) or higher. When diabetes is uncontrolled, persistently high blood sugar levels can damage nerves, blood vessels, and vital organs.
21 and E11. 22 have an excludes 1 notes therefore they can be coded together as long as a separate renal manifestation is present, I would just be careful when coding the actual renal condition as there are some renal codes that are excluded when using CKD codes.
A: No. Diabetes has a causal relationship with peripheral vascular disease. There is no assumed relationship between diabetes and CAD and the conditions are coded separately.
4–5. To report Type 1.5 diabetes mellitus, coders should assign ICD-10-CM codes from category E13. - (other specified diabetes mellitus). In this case, the provider specifically documented “combination Type 1 and 2 diabetes mellitus in poor control”; therefore, the coder should assign code E13.
No, uncontrolled and poorly controlled are not interchangeable when describing diabetes in ICD-10-CM. Uncontrolled can mean either hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia and is indexed as such in ICD-10-CM. Poorly controlled means hyperglycemia per the ICD-10-CM index.

249.50 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of secondary diabetes mellitus with ophthalmic manifestations, not stated as uncontrolled, or unspecified. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.
Insulin is a hormone that helps the glucose get into your cells to give them energy. With type 1 diabetes, your body does not make insulin. With type 2 diabetes, the more common type, your body does not make or use insulin well. Without enough insulin, the glucose stays in your blood. You can also have prediabetes. This means that your blood sugar is higher than normal but not high enough to be called diabetes. Having prediabetes puts you at a higher risk of getting type 2 diabetes.

E11.311 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. Short description: Type 2 diabetes w unsp diabetic retinopathy w macular edema This is the American ICD-10-CM version of E11.311 - other international versions of ICD-10 E11.311 may differ. A disease in which the body does not control the amount of glucose (a type of sugar) in the blood and the kidneys make a large amount of urine. This disease occurs when the body does not make enough insulin or does not use it the way it should. A heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by hyperglycemia and glucose intolerance. A metabolic disorder characterized by abnormally high blood sugar levels due to diminished production of insulin or insulin resistance/desensitization. A subclass of diabetes mellitus that is not insulin-responsive or dependent (niddm). It is characterized initially by insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia; and eventually by glucose intolerance; hyperglycemia; and overt diabetes. Type ii diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop ketosis but often exhibit obesity. A type of diabetes mellitus that is characterized by insulin resistance or desensitization and increased blood glucose levels. This is a chronic disease that can develop gradually over the life of a patient and can be linked to both environmental factors and heredity. Diabetes is a disease in which your blood glucose, or sugar, levels are too high. Glucose comes from the foods you eat. Insulin is a hormone that helps the glucose get into your cells to give them energy. With type 1 diabetes, your body does not make insulin. With type 2 diabetes, the more common type, your body does not make or use insulin well. Without Continue reading >>
[2] At least 90% of new cases could be reduced if there were proper treatment and monitoring of the eyes. [3] The longer a person has diabetes, the higher his or her chances of developing diabetic retinopathy. [4] Each year in the United States, diabetic retinopathy accounts for 12% of all new cases of blindness. It is also the leading cause of blindness for people aged 20 to 64 years. [5] Signs and symptoms Normal vision The same view with diabetic retinopathy. Emptied retinal venules due to arterial branch occlusion in diabetic retinopathy (fluorescein angiography) Diabetic retinopathy often has no early warning signs. Even macular edema, which can cause rapid vision loss, may not have any warning signs for some time. In general, however, a person with macular edema is likely to have blurred vision, making it hard to do things like read or drive. In some cases, the vision will get better or worse during the day. In the first stage which is called non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) there are no symptoms, the signs are not visible to the eye and patients will have 20/20 vision. The only way to detect NPDR is by fundus photography, in which microaneurysms (microscopic blood-filled bulges in the artery walls) can be seen. If there is reduced vision, fluorescein angiography can be done to see the back of the eye. Narrowing or blocked retinal blood vessels can be seen clearly and this is called retinal ischemia (lack of blood flow). Macular edema in which blood vessels leak their contents into the macular regi Continue reading >>
Most coders can quickly come up with 250.00. And if the physician only documented diabetes mellitus , that’s the correct ICD-9-CM code. If a physician doesn’t document complications or type of diabetes, coders default to code 250.00 (diabetes mellitus without mention of complications), says Jill Young, CPC, CEDC, CIMC, president of Young Medical Consulting, LLC, in East Lansing, MI. However, 250.00 is not necessarily the best code to describe the patient’s actual condition. Consider these two patients. Patient A is a type 2 diabetic with well controlled diabetes. Patient B is a type 2 diabetic with uncontrolled diabetes who also suffers from diabetes-related chronic kidney disease. If the physician documents “diabetes mellitus” for both patients, coders would report the same code, even though the patients have very different conditions. The physician loses reimbursement on Patient B, who is sicker and requires more care, Young says. Coding in ICD-9-CM When it comes to the code assignment for diabetes mellitus in ICD-9-CM (250 code series), coders identify whether the diabetes is type 1or 2 using a fifth digit, says Shannon E. McCall, RHIA, CCS, CCS-P, CPC, CPC-I, CEMC, CCDS, director of HIM/coding for HCPro, Inc., in Danvers, Mass, and an AHIMA-approved ICD-10-CM/PCS trainer. If the diabetes is secondary, coders choose from codes in the 249 series. Under series 250, coders will find 10 different subcategories that further define and refine the patient’s actual condition. All of those codes require a fifth digit to indicate whether the diabetes is controlled or uncontrolled, type 1or type 2. The fifth digit subclassifications are: Coders also need to note that codes 250.4, 250.5, 250.6, 250.7, and 250.8 all include instructions to use an additional code to ide Continue reading >>
The body system (s) affected 3. The complications affecting the body system (s) When coding diabetes mellitus, you should use as many codes from categories E08-E13* as necessary to describe all of the complications and associated conditions of the disease.
Now, the codes are based on a system that first identifies the type of diabetes mellitus (D M), the system in the body that is affected and the complication affecting that body system. Physicians will need to be aware of their verbiage when charting or dictating patient conditions.
Diabetes codes have undergone some of the most significant changes, according to the American Academy of Ophthalmic Executives (AAOE). With 29 million Americans now suffering from the disease, it’s critical for physicians across specialties to correctly code the disorder.
The physician must document the relationship between the condition and diabetes unless the coding guidelines specify otherwise. A manifestation may be presumed when documented as diabetes with, with mention of, associated with or in the respective condition (e.g., di Continue reading >>.
1. How you state it in the chart matters. Current documentation of noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus does not translate to ICD-10. Therefore, language such as “controlled” or “uncontrolled” and “juvenile-onset” or “adult-onset” has become obsolete.
