The ICD-10 code for Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency is E75.8. This code is used to classify and identify this specific genetic disorder in medical records and billing systems. In the previous ICD-9 coding system, the corresponding code for Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency was 277.5. It is important for healthcare professionals to accurately document and use these codes to ensure proper diagnosis and treatment for patients with this condition.
Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency (MSD) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the deficiency of multiple sulfatase enzymes. Unfortunately, as of now, there is no specific ICD10 code exclusively dedicated to MSD. However, it can be classified using broader codes that encompass lysosomal storage disorders or specific sulfatase enzyme deficiencies. For instance, E75.2 denotes "Other sphingolipidosis" in the ICD10 classification, which can be used to indicate MSD.
In terms of ICD9 coding, it is important to note that ICD9 has been replaced by ICD10 coding system. Therefore, as MSD is not specifically listed in ICD10, there is no direct ICD9 code available. However, in ICD9, related codes such as 272.7 ("Other disorders of lipoid metabolism") or 277.89 ("Other specified disorders of metabolism") might have been used to categorize MSD.
It is crucial to consult with a healthcare professional or a certified medical coder for accurate coding and classification of Multiple Sulfatase Deficiency based on the most up-to-date coding guidelines and resources.
