Anemia due to enzyme disorders

Not billableICD-10-CM diagnosis code.

This code exists but cannot be submitted on its own. It groups the more specific codes beneath it.

A category header for its whole life, FY2016 onwards. It has never been valid for submission on its own.

Submit one of these 6 more specific codes instead:

  • D55.0 Anemia due to glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase [G6PD] deficiency
  • D55.1 Anemia due to other disorders of glutathione metabolism
  • D55.2 Anemia due to disorders of glycolytic enzymes (also a header)
  • D55.3 Anemia due to disorders of nucleotide metabolism
  • D55.8 Other anemias due to enzyme disorders
  • D55.9 Anemia due to enzyme disorder, unspecified

What has happened to this code

Every change the publisher made, from 2012 to now. Entries marked draft are from the pre-implementation releases: ICD-10 took effect on 1 October 2015, so nothing before FY2016 was ever valid on a claim.
