The HLA-B27 test is primarily ordered to help strengthen or confirm a suspected diagnosis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS), reactive arthritis, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA), or sometimes anterior uveitis.
There are two methodologies for running the HLA-B27 test: a serologic test using flow cytometry (CPT 86812) and a molecular test, which uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based methodology (CPT 81374).
Too much bad cholesterol can increase your chance of getting heart disease, stroke, and other problems. The medical term for high blood cholesterol is lipid disorder, hyperlipidemia, or hypercholesterolemia.
You wouldn't code them together. Cholesterol is a type of lipid. If the provider diagnosed pure hypercholesterolemia, you would code that. It is more specific than hyperlipidemia, unspecified.
Familial combined hyperlipidemia is a disorder that is passed down through families. It causes high cholesterol and high blood triglycerides.

Hyperlipidemia can occur due to food habit, secondary to any other underlying disease, genetic abnormalities or idiopathic (unknown cause). If it is secondary to any other disease, both primary and secondary should be coded, remember to apply combination coding guidelines if applicable.
Hyperlipidemia refers to increase in any type of lipid (fat) in blood. We use common name “high cholesterol” instead of saying hyperlipidemia. Though not in detail, it is important to understand the basics of lipids to code to the highest specificity. There are two types of lipids: Triglycerides. Cholesterol.
Hence increase in the level of lipids is risk factors for cardiovascular problems and stroke. It may even cause obesity, fat deposits on skin, enlargement of organs like spleen, pancreas or liver. Lipid Panel – It is a lab test using specimen as blood to find any type of fat increase in blood.
Hyperlipidemia (hyperlipemia) involves abnormally elevated levels of any or all lipids and/or lipoproteins in the blood. Hyperlipidemias may basically be classified as either familial (also called primary) caused by specific genetic abnormalities, or acquired (also called secondary) when resulting from another underlying disorder that leads to alterations in plasma lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. Also, hyperlipidemia may be idiopathic, that is, without known cause.
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 may also be classified as a form of hyperlipidemia .
Xanthoma tuberosum. Clinical Information. 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.

Type iib hyperlipoproteinemia is caused by mutation in the receptor-binding domain of apolipoprotein b-100 which is a major component of low-density lipoproteins and very-low-density lipoproteins resulting in reduced clearance of these lipoproteins.
A type of familial lipid metabolism disorder characterized by a variable pattern of elevated plasma cholesterol and/or triglycerides. Multiple genes on different chromosomes may be involved, such as the major late transcription factor (upstream stimulatory factors) on chromosome 1.

Billing and Coding articles provide guidance for the related Local Coverage Determination (LCD) and assist providers in submitting correct claims for payment. Billing and Coding articles typically include CPT/HCPCS procedure codes, ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes, as well as Bill Type, Revenue, and CPT/HCPCS Modifier codes. The code lists in the article help explain which services (procedures) the related LCD applies to, the diagnosis codes for which the service is covered, or for which the service is not considered reasonable and necessary and therefore not covered.

When an Excludes2 note appears under a code it is acceptable to use both the code and the excluded code together.

Hyperlipidemia means your blood has too many lipids (or fats), such as cholesterol and triglycerides. One type of hyperlipidemia , hypercholesterolemia, means there's too much LDL (bad) cholesterol in your blood. This condition increases fatty deposits in arteries and the risk of blockages.
