About 1 items found relating to Hypertriglyceridemia. Pure hyperglyceridemia. ICD-10-CM E78.1.
Familial hypertriglyceridemia (type IV familial dyslipidemia) is a disorder characterized by the overproduction of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) from the liver. As a result, the patient will have an excessive number of triglycerides and VLDL on the lipid profile.
Familial hypercholesterolemia. E78.01 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM E78.01 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of E78.01 - other international versions of ICD-10 E78.01 may differ.
ICD-9-CM 272.1 is a billable medical code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis on a reimbursement claim, however, 272.1 should only be used for claims with a date of service on or before September 30, 2015.
E78. 01: Familial hypercholesterolemia. Z83. 42: Family history of familial hypercholesterolemia.
ICD-10 Code for Pure hyperglyceridemia- E78. 1- Codify by AAPC.
Primary hypertriglyceridemia, or type 4 hyperlipidemia has high concentration of triglycerides in the blood. It is also known as hypertriglyceridemia (or pure hypertriglyceridemia). Hypertriglyceridemia denotes high (hyper-) blood levels (-emia) of triglycerides, the most abundant fatty molecule in most organisms.
ICD-10 code E78. 2 for Mixed hyperlipidemia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases .
Hyperlipidemias are also classified according to which types of lipids are elevated, that is hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia or both in combined hyperlipidemia. Elevated levels of Lipoprotein(a) may also be classified as a form of hyperlipidemia.
Expert. You wouldn't code them together. Cholesterol is a type of lipid. If the provider diagnosed pure hypercholesterolemia, you would code that.
Familial hypertriglyceridemia is a common disorder passed down through families. It causes a higher-than-normal level of triglycerides (a type of fat) in a person's blood.
Familial hypertriglyceridemia is a genetic condition that causes the triglyceride levels in the blood to get too high. This relatively common condition affects about 1 in 500 people in the United States. Familial hypertriglyceridemia is typically inherited in a dominant manner.
Familial hypercholesterolemia is a disorder that is passed down through families. It causes LDL (bad) cholesterol level to be very high. The condition begins at birth and can cause heart attacks at an early age.
For example, E78. 2 Mixed hyperlipidemia cannot be coded with 5-alpha-reductase deficiency (E29. 1 Testicular hypofunction), but the note for this is not at E78.
A disorder of lipoprotein metabolism characterized by high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It is caused by elevation of low density and very low density lipoproteins.
Code R53. 83 is the diagnosis code used for Other Fatigue. It is a condition marked by drowsiness and an unusual lack of energy and mental alertness. It can be caused by many things, including illness, injury, or drugs.
272.1 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of pure hyperglyceridemia. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
The following crosswalk between ICD-9 to ICD-10 is based based on the General Equivalence Mappings (GEMS) information:
References found for the code 272.1 in the Index of Diseases and Injuries:
Triglycerides are a type of fat found in your blood. Too much of this type of fat may raise the risk of coronary artery disease, especially in women.
General Equivalence Map Definitions The ICD-9 and ICD-10 GEMs are used to facilitate linking between the diagnosis codes in ICD-9-CM and the new ICD-10-CM code set. The GEMs are the raw material from which providers, health information vendors and payers can derive specific applied mappings to meet their needs.

Hypertriglyceridemia (or high triglycerides) results from overproduction of very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), which causes more triglycerides in the blood.
Familial hypertriglyceridemia usually doesn’t cause symptoms unless it’s severe enough to lead to another health condition.
If not treated, high triglycerides can lead to complications, including:
If you have familial hypertriglyceridemia, it may be more difficult to lower your triglycerides because the condition is genetic. However, there are still lifestyle changes you can make to lower the risk of complications due to high triglycerides.
While lifestyle changes can be an effective way to keep high triglycerides under control, medication can also be prescribed as first-line treatment. This may be particularly helpful if your triglyceride levels are high, or if lifestyle changes don’t lower your triglyceride levels enough.
When high triglycerides are caused by genetics, it’s known as familial hypertriglyceridemia. With this condition, there is too much of a type of fat (lipid) in your blood known as VLDL.
