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
(as moved from Diabetic Ketoacidosis) 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. Template: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? If I am correct, does this apply to all 'new' diagnoses or just some?=== Jthiessen 08:33, 2014 September 5 (CDT)
