Gilbert's syndrome is a common genetic liver disorder characterized by mild jaundice due to impaired bilirubin processing. The ICD-10 code for Gilbert's syndrome is E80.4, while the ICD-9 code is 277.4.

Gilbert's syndrome is a common, benign liver disorder characterized by mild elevations of bilirubin levels in the blood. The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision (ICD-10) provides a specific code for Gilbert's syndrome, which is K76.8. This code falls under the category of "other specified diseases of the liver."
In terms of the previous coding system, the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision (ICD-9), the code for Gilbert's syndrome is 277.4. This code is found in the section for "other disorders of metabolism."
It is important to note that the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 occurred on October 1, 2015, so healthcare providers have since adopted the ICD-10 system for accurate coding and documentation.
By providing these codes, healthcare professionals can accurately classify and document the diagnosis of Gilbert's syndrome in the medical records. Accurate coding is crucial for proper reimbursement, epidemiological studies, and tracking the prevalence of specific conditions.
Please consult a healthcare professional or coding specialist for specific guidance and to ensure the most accurate and up-to-date coding information.
