The ICD-10 code for Keratitis Ichthyosis Deafness (KID) Syndrome is Q87.8. This code is used to classify this rare genetic disorder characterized by the presence of keratitis (inflammation of the cornea), ichthyosis (a skin disorder), and deafness. Unfortunately, ICD-9 does not have a specific code for KID Syndrome as it was replaced by ICD-10. It is important to consult a healthcare professional for accurate diagnosis and coding information.
Keratitis Ichthyosis Deafness (KID) Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the presence of various symptoms including inflammation of the cornea (keratitis), dry and scaly skin (ichthyosis), and hearing loss (deafness). The ICD-10 code for KID Syndrome is Q87.8, which falls under the category of "Other specified congenital malformation syndromes predominantly associated with short stature."
In the previous ICD-9 coding system, KID Syndrome did not have a specific code. However, the closest code that could be used to describe the condition is 757.39, which falls under the category of "Other specified anomalies of skin." It is important to note that the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 coding systems has allowed for more specific and accurate coding of various medical conditions, including KID Syndrome.
It is always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional or medical coder for accurate coding and billing purposes.
