If a diabetic patient uses insulin, and the type of diabetes is not documented, what type of diabetes would be coded according t

o ICD-10-CM guidelines
Medicine
1 answer:
Sergio [31]2 years ago

The guidelines state that if the type of diabetes is not documented, the default is type 2.

The guidelines also instruct to use additional codes to identify long-term control with insulin (Z79. 4) or oral hypoglycemic drugs (Z79. 84).

The type of diabetes mellitus should always be clearly documented in the medical record for each date of service. However, if the type of diabetes mellitus is not documented in the medical record, the default ICD-10 diagnosis code is E11, type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Secondary diabetes can be defined as a diabetic condition that develops after the destruction of the beta-cells in the pancreatic islets and/or the induction of insulin resistance by an acquired disease (e.g. endocrinopathies) or others.

what can be interpreted about type 2 diabetes mellitus in monozygotic twins when it affects only one twin 70% of the time and af
Anon25 [30]

Expression can be influenced by factors that are not genetic.

<h3>What are non-genetic factors?</h3>

Factors that are not part of a person's genetic make-up are referred to as non-genetic factors. These elements include aspects of the surrounding environment as well as aspects of an organism's lifestyle that contribute to its makeup.

It has been demonstrated in a number of studies that the formation of some features is influenced by both hereditary and non-genetic variables.

In the situation described above, both of the monozygotic twins have diabetes, but the lifestyle choices made by one of them causes the condition to manifest itself seventy percent of the time. It's possible that the person is drinking more alcohol and eating more sugar.
