ICD10 code of Lipedema and ICD9 code
What is the ICD10 code for Lipedema? And the ICD9 code for Lipedema?
Lipedema is a medical condition characterized by the abnormal accumulation of fat cells, primarily in the lower extremities. The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) provides specific codes to classify lipedema diagnoses. The appropriate ICD-10 code for lipedema is E88.2. This code falls under the category of "Metabolic disorders" and further specifies the condition as "Lipedema."
On the other hand, the International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) was used prior to the implementation of ICD-10. The corresponding code for lipedema in ICD-9 is 272.6. This code is classified under "Disorders of lipoid metabolism" and denotes the condition as "Other lipidoses."
It's worth mentioning that the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 occurred on October 1, 2015. Since then, healthcare providers and institutions have been required to use ICD-10 codes for billing, documentation, and statistical purposes. The implementation of ICD-10 allows for more detailed and accurate classification of diseases, facilitating better analysis, research, and patient care.
