If a diabetic patient uses insulin, and the type of diabetes is not documented, what type of diabetes would be coded according t
Sergio [31]

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.

  1. Increases the rate and strength of contraction of the heart
  2. Dilates the bronchioles of the lungs
  3. Decreases movement in the stomach and intestines (decreasing GI peristalsis)
  4. Increases the breakdown of glycogen and release of glucose from the liver thereby increasing blood glucose
  5. It dilates the pupil
  6. increases sweat secretion from the sweat glands
  7. constricts blood vessels of the skin
  8. Dilates blood vessel of the skeletal muscle
  9. Constricts blood vessels of internal organs except the heart and the lungs.
  10. Relaxes the muscle wall of the urinary bladder
  11. Stimulates hormone (epinephrine and norepinephrine) secretion from the adrenal medulla
