Anaemia ICD-10 code
The ICD-10-CM code for anaemia is D64.9 — anemia, unspecified. It is billable and valid for submission on a claim. There are 16 related codes, and which one you use depends on what the documentation supports.
Also written as anemia.
The mistake coders make here
D64.9 is unspecified anaemia and should be a last resort. Anaemia in chronic kidney disease is D63.1 and requires the CKD to be coded first; acute blood-loss anaemia is D62.
