D69.0

D69.0 — Allergic purpura

Billable / specific codeICD-10-CM

D69.0 is a billable, specific ICD-10-CM code for allergic purpura. It is valid for submission on a claim.

Other codes that can never be billed with D69.0

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at D69.0. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading D69.0 alone.

L95Vasculitis limited to skin, not elsewhere classified

Risk adjustment

D69.0 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.

Medicare coverage

D69.0 is named in 2 Medicare coverage policies — 2 listing it as supporting medical necessity. Which of them applies to you depends on your Medicare contractor, and coverage genuinely differs by state.
