Diabetes can be coded only as a comorbid code.
We do not code newly diagnosed diabetes melitus
Mild-If treated with insulin or oral hypoglycemics,we do not code diet only controlled DM.
Moderate-Previous hospitalization for Diabetes(DKA,Hyperosmolar coma)
Severe-Complications of neuropathy,retinopathy, or nephropathies or all.Under neuropathies I include diabetic gastropathies/diabetic foot ulcers/ charcot DM foot
patient newly diagnosed with diabetes
can be coded if one of the following is present:

We don't code new diagnosis as comorbids until the next hospital admission, and there is no diagnosis code for diabetes. New diabetes can be coded as Other Endocrine Problems.
- discussion**
- I was under the impression that Dr Roberts did want us to code some new diagnosis under comorbs. For example, if a newly admitted pt with no past medical history goes for a CT scan and they find cancer in the bowel and the liver, I was under the impression that we were to put bowel and liver cancer in the comorbid category, as well as the diagnosis category. Is this incorrect? If I am correct then why would we not code diabetes in the comorbs for the above scenario?
