Familial hypercholesterolemia. E78.01 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2019 edition of ICD-10-CM E78.01 became effective on October 1, 2018. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of E78.01 - other international versions of ICD-10 E78.01 may differ.
Hyperlipidemia ICD 10 Codes guidelines: It is located in ICD-10 CM manual chapter 4, Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E89) Hyperlipidemia can occur due to food habit, secondary to any other underlying disease, genetic abnormalities or idiopathic (unknown cause).
Hyperlipidemia, unspecified. Dyslipidemia due to type 1 diabetes mellitus Dyslipidemia with high density lipoprotein below reference range and triglyceride above reference range due to type 2 diabetes mellitus.
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:
E78.2ICD-10 code E78. 2 for Mixed hyperlipidemia is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases .
Heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH) is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by markedly elevated plasma concentrations of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (LDL-C), typically well above the 95th percentile for age and sex.
E78.5Code E78. 5 is the diagnosis code used for Hyperlipidemia, Unspecified, a disorder of lipoprotein metabolism other lipidemias. It is a condition with excess lipids in the blood.
Encounter for other specified aftercareICD-10 code Z51. 89 for Encounter for other specified aftercare is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Factors influencing health status and contact with health services .
Summary. Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a diagnosis which refers to individuals with very significantly elevated low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol (LDL-C) or “bad cholesterol” and an increased risk of early onset of coronary artery disease if not sufficiently treated.
Heterozygous FH is characterized by very high LDL cholesterol (above 190 for adults or above 160 for children) and a family history of high cholesterol, heart disease or stroke. If both of your parents have FH and you inherit the FH gene from each of them, you will have homozygous FH, meaning you have two FH genes.
Is hyperlipidemia the same as high cholesterol? Yes, hyperlipidemia is another name for high cholesterol, and so is hypercholesterolemia.
You may hear the term hyperlipidemia used interchangeably with dyslipidemia. But that's not entirely accurate. Hyperlipidemia refers to high levels of LDL or triglycerides. Dyslipidemia can refer to levels that are either higher or lower than the normal range for those blood fats.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus Without complications9: Type 2 diabetes mellitus Without complications.
Z codes are for use in any healthcare setting. Z codes may be used as either a first-listed (principal diagnosis code in the inpatient setting) or secondary code, depending on the circumstances of the encounter.
For example, if a patient with severe degenerative osteoarthritis of the hip, underwent hip replacement and the current encounter/admission is for rehabilitation, report code Z47. 1, Aftercare following joint replacement surgery, as the first-listed or principal diagnosis.
ICD-10-PCS will be the official system of assigning codes to procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. ICD-10-PCS codes will support data collection, payment and electronic health records. ICD-10-PCS is a medical classification coding system for procedural codes.
