Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis. D52.0 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of dietary folate deficiency anemia. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.

8: Deficiency of other specified B group vitamins.
Folate-deficiency anemia is the lack of folic acid in the blood. Folic acid is a B vitamin that helps your body make red blood cells. If you don't have enough red blood cells, you have anemia. Red blood cells carry oxygen to all parts of your body.
ICD-10 code R68. 8 for Other general symptoms and signs is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified .
Vitamin B-12 (82607) and folate (82746) can be tested up to four times per year for malabsorption syndromes (K90. 9) or deficiency disorders (D81. 818, D81. 819, E53.
ICD-10 code E56. 9 for Vitamin deficiency, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases .
To check for folate deficiency anemia, your doctor will ask you about your symptoms. They might also order blood tests and a complete blood count (CBC) test to measure the number and appearance of your red blood cells. If you have a lack of folate, your red blood cells look large and immature.
Pernicious anemia is a type of megaloblastic anemia in which the body isn't able to absorb vitamin B12 due to a lack of intrinsic factor in stomach secretions.
The terms “folic acid” and “folate” often are used interchangeably. However, folate is a general term used to describe the many different forms of vitamin B9: folic acid, dihydrofolate (DHF), tetrahydrofolate (THF), 5, 10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (5, 10-MTHF), and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) 1.
R68. 89 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 R68. 89 became effective on October 1, 2021.

ICD-10 code D51. 9 for Vitamin B12 deficiency anemia, unspecified is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism .
Vitamin b12 deficiency. Clinical Information. A nutritional condition produced by a deficiency of folic acid in the diet. Many plant and animal tissues contain folic acid, abundant in green leafy vegetables, yeast, liver, and mushrooms but destroyed by long-term cooking.
Alcohol interferes with its intermedi ate metabolism and absorption. Folic acid deficiency may develop in long-term anticonvulsant therapy or with use of oral contraceptives. This deficiency causes anemia, macrocytic anemia, and megaloblastic anemia.
This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code D52.0 and a single ICD9 code, 281.2 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
Megaloblastic anemia (or megaloblastic anaemia) is an anemia (of macrocytic classification) that results from inhibition of DNA synthesis during red blood cell production. When DNA synthesis is impaired, the cell cycle cannot progress from the G2 growth stage to the mitosis (M) stage. This leads to continuing cell growth without division, which presents as macrocytosis. Megaloblastic anemia has a rather slow onset, especially when compared to that of other anemias. The defect in red cell DNA synthesis is most often due to hypovitaminosis, specifically a deficiency of vitamin B12 and/or folic acid. Vitamin B12 deficiency alone will not cause the syndrome in the presence of sufficient folate, as the mechanism is loss of B12 dependent folate recycling, followed by folate-deficiency loss of nucleic acid synthesis (specifically thymine), leading to defects in DNA synthesis. Folic acid supplementation in the absence of vitamin B12 prevents this type of anemia (although other vitamin B12-specific pathologies may be present). Loss of micronutrients may also be a cause. Copper deficiency resulting from an excess of zinc from unusually high oral consumption of zinc-containing denture-fixation creams has been found to be a cause.
