The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM D68.9 became effective on October 1, 2020. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of D68.9 - other international versions of ICD-10 D68.9 may differ. A condition in which there is a deviation from or interruption of the normal coagulation properties of the blood.
Short description: Coagulat defect NEC/NOS. ICD-9-CM 286.9 is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 286.9 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015. For claims with a date of service on or after October 1, 2015,...
Code 790.92, Abnormal coagulation profile, is available to identify abnormal laboratory findings of prolonged bleeding time without the presence of hemorrhage or a coagulation disorder.
A coagulopathy or clotting defect is any condition in which there is a prolonged clotting time and serious bleeding or resulting hemorrhagic disorder. Coagulation defects are assigned to category 286.
D68. 9 - Coagulation defect, unspecified. ICD-10-CM.
9: Coagulation defect, unspecified.
Coagulation defects and disorders are a group of conditions in which there is a problem with the body's blood clotting process. These disorders can lead to heavy and prolonged bleeding after an injury or bleeding may also begin on its own.
A coagulopathy is a condition that affects how your blood clots, resulting in more bleeding during surgery, injury, delivery of a baby and/or menstruation. The most common coagulopathy that results in heavy menstruation is Von Willebrand Disease.
59.
Coagulation (or clotting) is the process through which blood changes from a liquid and becomes thicker, like a gel. Coagulation is part of a larger process called hemostasis, which is the way that the body makes bleeding stop when it needs to.
The most common type of hereditary coagulation disorder is hemophilia. Patients with hemophilia can be diagnosed at any age and the age of diagnosis is often associated with how severe the condition is.
Normally, if you get hurt, your body forms a blood clot to stop the bleeding. For blood to clot, your body needs cells called platelets and proteins known as clotting factors. If you have a bleeding disorder, you either do not have enough platelets or clotting factors or they don't work the way they should.
D68.9 is absolutely incorrect for this scenario. D68.9 is for when the provider has rendered a diagnosis of a coagulation defect. There are many articles which have been published by the AMA stating this is incorrect. The coder cannot assign a code based on a lab result and cannot determine the diagnosis. If the provider documents that the result is abnormal and is a result of the Coumadin being correctly taken then you would use adverse effect. However the provider must document this. If the coder sees a low or elevated result there is no code that can be assigned for this, it is just information not a diagnosis.#N#So the question is then what exactly did the provider document or are you looking only at the lab result. if the purpose of the encounter was to draw the blood to check the result and all you have then is a lab result with no provider interpretation as to the result is indeed elevated then you would jut use drug monitoring Z51.81 and the Z79.01. If the provider only documents that the lab is elevated then you could only use the R79.1. Only if the provider documents that the elevation is in fact an adverse effect of the Coumadin can you use the adverse effect of drug. It might not be an adverse effect, it may be that the patient took more than they should which would be a poisoning, and it may not be due to the Coumadin administration at all, it may be that the provider has yet to determine the correct dosage for the patient.
