Medical Coding Tips – How to Code Pre Diabetes with Hyperglycemia

Health No Comments »

Q: How would you code pre-diabetes with hyperglycemia?
A: I’m not going to try to open up Find-A-Code, it will be too slow. If you want to look it up. But we can go to Find-A-Code.

Pre-diabetes is not diabetes, it is not the diabetes code E11. It is not going to be E11, it’s not going to be E10, it’s not going to be E13 or 12. Those are your main endocrine codes, but I can tell you a quick way to look this up. If you know the diabetic codes, you can go into a code like E11.9 and read and it will usually tell you “Hey, heads up. This excludes diabetes” things like that.

You can also look up hyperglycemia and it will usually, the ICD-10 manuals is really good about giving you things to look at and to cross reference, and encoders are even better than the manual because they pop up for you.

Did you have that? Did you find it at all, Schuyler?

Coach Schuyler: I really don’t feel that there’s going to be a combination code because it’s more of the signs and symptoms. It would be more of definitely coding both of them. So you have that pre-diabetes, which is the R73.03. Then, the hypoglycemia is R73.9. Obviously, that’s something that we can more look into, but since it is not a definitive diagnosis, I feel that it would not have that proper combination code like E11.65 does, that diabetes type 2 with hyperglycemia. For the purpose of this, I haven’t found anything that’s what I’ve come into conclusion for in regards to this question.

Coach Alicia: That is a good point to make. That is what separates the people that have experience in coding versus the ones that are newer because you automatically think, Oh, I know. E11 is going to be one of the first codes that you learn because anything you’re going to teach in coding can be done through diabetes, so you’re going to hear it a lot. You’re going to learn I10 for hypertension and E11, so you automatically start thinking of that, but this is actually pre-diabetes and that’s different. Notice that it’s an R code versus an E code which is an endocrine code, it’s how you remember it. It’s an R code which is a completely different area. That should give you a heads-up. It usually confuses everybody so hopefully that’s a good answer for you.

But if you get stumped, that’s the way to do it. Go and look and they’ll say, “Hey, by the way, this excludes pre-diabetes or diabetes due to pancreatectomy or something like that.”

Hearing Loss and Diabetes Comorbidity

Health No Comments »

Diabetes and hearing loss are two of America’s most widespread health concerns. Nearly 30 million people in the U.S. have diabetes, and an estimated 34.5 million have some type of hearing loss. Those are large groups of people, and it appears there is a lot of overlap between the two.

A recent study found that hearing loss is twice as common in people with diabetes as it is in those who don’t have the disease. Also, of the 86 million adults in the U.S. who have prediabetes, the rate of hearing loss is 30 percent higher than in those with normal blood glucose.

Right now we don’t know how diabetes is related to hearing loss. It’s possible that the high blood glucose levels associated with diabetes cause damage to the small blood vessels in the inner ear, similar to the way in which diabetes can damage the eyes and the kidneys. But more research needs to be done to discover why people with diabetes have a higher rate of hearing loss. (ADA, 2016)

Exercise is an important part of every type 2 diabetes management plan, but it’s not always easy or convenient to get to the gym. Fortunately, there are ways to get fit without buying an expensive gym membership or spending hours on the treadmill. In fact, you can reap the benefits of diabetes exercises without leaving the comfort of your own home.

How important is exercise for diabetes?

The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends 30 minutes of moderate activity most days of the week. If you have trouble fitting in 30 minutes of exercise at a time, consider breaking it up into 10-minute segments. Its best to spread your activity out over at least 3 days during the week and try not to go more than 2 days in a row without exercising. Remember: moderate intensity means that you are working hard enough that you can talk, but not sing, during the activity. Vigorous intensity means you cannot say more than a few words without pausing for a breath during the activity.

If you haven’t been very active recently, start out with 5 or 10 minutes a day. Then, increase your activity sessions by a few minutes each week. Over time, you’ll see your fitness improve, and you’ll find that you’re able to do more.

Getting started with Diabetes exercises at home. If you are just starting out, this free diabetes exercises at home video routine is a great place to begin. You don’t even need to leave the comfort of your own home!

Make sure to get your doctor’s permission before starting with these diabetes exercises at home. Let them know that you want to do these diabetes exercises at home, they can make sure you’re ready for it.

If you’re new to working out, start slowly. Check your blood sugar before, during, and after exercise — especially if you’re trying something new — to determine how it impacts your blood sugar levels. And keep a snack nearby in case your blood sugar drops.
