V58.67 is a legacy non-billable code used to specify a medical diagnosis of long-term (current) use of insulin. This code was replaced on September 30, 2015 by its ICD-10 equivalent.
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.
As of October 2015, ICD-9 codes are no longer used for medical coding. Instead, use this equivalent ICD-10-CM code, which is an exact match to ICD-9 code V58.67:
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.
there is no minimum attached for the V58.67. A one time does means the patient is not insulin dependent and has a high reading which the provider treatments emergently with a one time doseing but the patient does not leave with a prescription for continued insulin. Or it is a patient that is receiving a medication that will cause the BS to become elevated and for the duration of the treatment the patient is receiving insulin. If the patient is being prescribed insulin today with the intetion that they will on this medication for the long term then you would use the V58.67 as they are classified as insulin dependent, and still type II. This is why the codes state "long term (current) .... use". The patient does not have to be on the insulin for any specified time. I would be interested in any link you have in that regard.
Some patients with type II diabetes mellitus are unable to control their blood sugar through diet and oral medication alone and do require insulin. If the documentation in a medical record does not indicate the type of diabetes but does indicate that the patient uses insulin, the appropriate fifth-digit for type II must be used. For type II patients who routinely use insulin, code V58.67, Long-term (current) use of insulin, should also be assigned to indicate that the patient uses insulin. Code V58.67 should not be assigned if insulin is given temporarily to bring a type II patient?s blood sugar under control during an encounter.
If the purpose/intention is for the patient to be on insulin for the long term then yes you assign the V58.67. The guideline is directed toward a one time dose to bring down a high sugar, you would not use that code.
