  2. Diabetes affects people of all ages and a major risk factor for severe illnesses. According to the CDC, more than 34 million Americans have diabetes (about 1 in 10), and about 90- 95% of them have type 2 diabetes. This means about 5-10% of Americans have type 1 diabetes. As endocrinologists focus on the challenge of managing patients, they can rely on endocrinology medical billing and coding services to report their services and submit accurate claims for optimal reimbursement. Diagnosis and Treatment Diagnosing Diabetes Diabetes is diagnosed using the following tests: ▪Random blood sugar test ▪Fasting blood sugar test ▪Oral glucose tolerance test Treating Diabetes Managing type 2 diabetes involves various strategies to stabilize or lower the level of glucose in the blood. This includes: ▪Monitoring glucose level ▪Managing diet ▪Insulin ▪Medication ▪Exercise To submit claims to insurance companies for reimbursement purposes, providers need to assign the correct medical codes to report diagnosis and procedures and services rendered. Let’s take a look at the ICD-10 codes for type 1 and type 2 diabetes. ICD-10 Codes For Type 1 And Type 2 Diabetes ICD-10 codes for Type 1 diabetes •E10: Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus •E10.1: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with ketoacidosis •E10.10: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with ketoacidosis without coma. •E10.11: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with ketoacidosis with coma www.outsourcestrategies.com 800-670-2809

  3. •E10.2: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with kidney complications. •E10.21:Type 1 diabetes mellitus with diabetic nephropathy •E10.22: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with diabetic chronic kidney disease •E10.29: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with other diabetic kidney complication. •E10.3: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with ophthalmic complications. •E10.4: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with neurological complications •E10.5: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with circulatory complications. •E10.6: Type 1 diabetes mellitus with other specified complications. ICD-10 codes for type 2 diabetes •E11: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus •E11.0: Type 2 diabetes with hyperosmolarity ▪E11.00: Type 2 diabetes with hyperosmolarity without nonketotic hyperglycemic – hyperosmolar coma ▪E11.01: Type 2 diabetes with hypersmolarity with coma. •E11.1: Type 2 diabetes mellitus with ketoacidosis. •E11.2: Type 2 diabetes mellitus with kidney complications. •E11.21: Type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic nephropathy •E11.22: Type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic chronic kidney disease. •E11.29: Type 2 diabetes mellitus with other diabetic kidney complication. Coding diabetes is challenging and requires precision. Outsourcing medical coding to an experienced service provider will ensure accurate code selection and sequencing of ICD- 10 codes for diabetes as well as those for any complications or manifestations. Experienced coders will carefully read through the physician’s documentation to assign the correct ICD- 10 codes. www.outsourcestrategies.com 800-670-2809
