R74.8 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of abnormal levels of other serum enzymes. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. The ICD code R748 is used to code Elevated alkaline phosphatase
Hyperthyroidism, by its effects upon bone, may elevate alkaline phosphatase. There is evidence that thyroid hormone (T 3) acts to stimulate bone alkaline phosphatase activity through an osteoblast nuclear receptor-mediated process. 5 Hyperparathyroidism, in some patients. Pseudohyperparathyroidism.
(In most patients with cholecystitis and cholangitis who do not have a common duct stone, alkaline phosphatase is within normal limits or only slightly increased.)
In rickets and osteomalacia, serum calcium and phosphorus are low to normal, and alkaline phosphatase may be normal or increased. Hypervitaminosis D may cause elevations in alkaline phosphatase. In Paget disease of bone there is often isolated elevation of serum alkaline phosphatase.
ICD-10-CM Code for Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes R74. 8.
8 Abnormal levels of other serum enzymes. Abnormal level of: acid phosphatase.
ICD-10-CM Code for Elevation of levels of liver transaminase levels R74. 01.
A: The ICD-10-CM index lists code R79. 89 (Other specified abnormal findings of blood chemistry) as the default for abnormal liver function tests (LFTs).
ICD-10 code R79. 89 for Other specified abnormal findings of blood chemistry is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .

821. Revised descriptor for ICD-10-CM diagnosis code Z77. 29.
Transaminitis, or hypertransaminasemia, refers to unusually high levels of a family of enzymes called transaminases. Transaminitis is not a disease, but it can point to other issues that require treatment. High levels of fat or similar problems may be causing inflammation in the liver.
Encounter for screening for other metabolic disorders Z13. 228 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 Z13. 228 became effective on October 1, 2021.

Elevated alkaline phosphatase describes the situation where the levels of alkaline phosphatase exceed the reference range. It can be associated with certain medical conditions or syndromes (e.g., hyperphosphatasia with mental retardation syndrome, HPMRS)

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code R74.8 and a single ICD9 code, 790.5 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Causes of low alkaline phosphatase are said to include: Hypothyroidism − but most hypothyroid patients have normal alkaline phosphatase. Pernicious anemia − in very few patients. Hypophosphatasia: Very low alkaline phosphatase values are found in the presence of normocalcemia or hypocalcemia.
Causes of high alkaline phosphatase include bone growth, healing fracture, acromegaly, osteogenic sarcoma, liver or bone metastases, leukemia, myelofibrosis, and rarely myeloma. Alkaline phosphatase is used as a tumor marker. 3,4. In rickets and osteomalacia, serum calcium and phosphorus are low to normal, and alkaline phosphatase may be normal ...
Serum alkaline phosphatase is a member of a family of zinc metalloprotein enzymes that function to split off a terminal phosphate group from an organic phosphate ester. This enzyme functions in an alkaline environment (optimum pH of 10). Active center of ALP enzymes includes a serine residue.
Pancreatitis, carcinoma of pancreas, cystic fibrosis. Pulmonary infarct (one to three weeks after embolism. Healing infarcts in other organs, including kidney, may also cause increased alkaline phosphatase); other situations in which angiofibroplasia occurs, such as healing in a large decubitus ulcer.
Hypervitaminosis D may cause elevations in alkaline phosphatase. In Paget disease of bone there is often isolated elevation of serum alkaline phosphatase. Some of the highest levels of serum ALP are seen in Paget disease. Hyperthyroidism, by its effects upon bone, may elevate alkaline phosphatase.
Malnutrition has been reported to relate to low values, but in practice, diseases causing malnutrition relate often to high alkaline phosphatase results (eg, disseminated neoplasia). Some drugs (clofibrate, azathioprine, estrogens and estrogens in combination with androgens) lower serum ALP activity.
