D64Other anemias

Non-billable headerICD-10-CM

D64 is a non-billable header ICD-10-CM code for other anemias. It cannot be billed on its own: choose one of the more specific child codes below.

Excludes1 — never code together

These conditions cannot occur together. Billing both on the same encounter is a denial.

  • refractory anemia (D46.-)
  • refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation [RAEB T] (C92.0-)

Other codes that can never be billed with D64

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at D64. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading D64 alone.

  • R71Abnormality of red blood cells
  • E53.1Pyridoxine deficiency
  • E83.1Disorders of iron metabolism
  • D53.9Nutritional anemia, unspecified

Risk adjustment

D64 does not map to an HCC and does not risk-adjust under CMS-HCC V28. That is normal — most ICD-10 codes do not. It still needs to be coded correctly; it just will not move a RAF score.

Code to one of these instead D64

7 child codes. Green means billable.
