Inclusion terms

Alternative wordings a physician may use in the chart for this same code.

  • Acid sphingomyelinase deficiency (ASMD)

Excludes1 inherited from the categories above E75.24

These are not written on E75.24, but they bind it: a note on a category applies to every code beneath it. Billing E75.24 with anything listed here is a denial.

Written on E75.2 Other sphingolipidosis

  • adrenoleukodystrophy [Addison-Schilder] (E71.528)

Written on E75 Disorders of sphingolipid metabolism and other lipid storage disorders

Other codes that can never be billed with E75.24

These codes carry an Excludes1 note pointing at E75.24. The conflict binds both ways, but ICD-10-CM only writes it down on one side — so you would not find this by reading E75.24 alone.

  • E78.7Disorders of bile acid and cholesterol metabolism
  • R79Other abnormal findings of blood chemistry

Risk adjustment

E75.24 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 history

E75.24 has not changed since FY2024 — no addition, revision or deletion across the three most recent ICD-10-CM releases.

Code to one of these instead E75.24
