The 2021 edition of ICD-10-CM D80.8 became effective on October 1, 2020. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of D80.8 - other international versions of ICD-10 D80.8 may differ. Applicable To. Kappa light chain deficiency. The following code (s) above D80.8 contain annotation back-references.
Or, 203.00 multiple myeloma. it is my understanding that smoldering MM can sometimes be MGUS (monogammopathy of unknown significance 273.1 before it becomes MM 203.00) However this depends on kappa light chain/electrophoresis and other lab work. The only other code I know is then 203.00.

Smoldering myeloma is a precancerous condition that alters certain proteins in blood and/or increases plasma cells in bone marrow, but it does not cause symptoms of disease. About half of those diagnosed with the condition, however, will develop multiple myeloma within 5 years.
A kappa free light chain test is a quick blood test that measures certain proteins in your blood. High levels of these proteins may mean you have a plasma cell disorder. A healthcare provider might order a kappa free light chain test if you have symptoms such as bone pain or fatigue.
D47. 2 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 D47. 2 became effective on October 1, 2021.
A free light chains test measures the amount of lambda and kappa free light chains in the blood. If the amount of free light chains is higher or lower than normal, it can mean you have a disorder of the plasma cells.
In general, a low kappa-lambda ratio (< 0.26) indicates the overproduction of lambda light chains, and a high ratio (> 1.65) indicates the overproduction of kappa light chains.
Diagnosing multiple myeloma includes blood work, a 24-hour urine collection, a bone marrow biopsy, imaging studies (such as x-rays, MRIs, PET scans) and bone density tests. It sounds like a lot (and it is!) but none are that invasive or painful, with the exception of the bone marrow biopsy, but even that isn't so bad.
There are several types of plasma cell neoplasms. Multiple myeloma and other plasma cell neoplasms may cause a condition called amyloidosis. Age can affect the risk of plasma cell neoplasms. Tests that examine the blood, bone marrow, and urine are used to diagnose multiple myeloma and other plasma cell neoplasms.
Code D64. 9 is the diagnosis code used for Anemia, Unspecified, it falls under the category of diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism. Anemia specifically, is a condition in which the number of red blood cells is below normal.
