Cyclic Neutropenia:
ICD-10 code: D70.8
ICD-9 code: 288.02
Cyclic neutropenia is a rare hematological disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of neutropenia, which is a decrease in the number of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) in the blood. The ICD-10 code for cyclic neutropenia is D70.2. This code falls under the chapter "Diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism" in the ICD-10 classification system.
In contrast, the ICD-9 code for cyclic neutropenia is 288.02. The ICD-9 classification system was used prior to the implementation of ICD-10. The ICD-9 code for cyclic neutropenia falls under the category "Other specified disorders of white blood cells" in the "Diseases of the Blood and Blood-Forming Organs" chapter.
It is important to note that ICD codes are used for medical billing and statistical purposes. They provide a standardized way of classifying and coding diseases, allowing for easier data analysis and communication between healthcare providers and insurance companies. These codes enable healthcare professionals to accurately document and track patient conditions, aiding in research, treatment, and reimbursement processes.
