E11.65 – Type 2 diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia

E11.65 diagnosis code: Type 2 diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia

The E11.65 is an ICD code that's included in the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM), and it is used to designate “Type 2 diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia.”

There are two types of diabetes, Type 1 and Type 2. For Type 1 diabetes, the pancreas doesn't produce any insulin. For Type 2 diabetes, the pancreas still produces insulin, but it doesn't produce enough to overcome the resistance that the body develops against the effects of insulin. This generally involves insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency.

This ICD-10 code is meant to be used for people confirmed to have Type 2 Diabetes, plus they are hyperglycemic.

Is the E11.65 billable?

Yes, the E11.65 ICD-10 code is billable and can be used to designate a patient for reimbursement purposes.

E11.65 clinical information

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is commonly found in middle-aged adults or those who are already in their late adulthood. To reiterate, this type of diabetes is characterized by the pancreas producing less insulin for the body. Type 2 diabetics develop a resistance to the effects of insulin, so if the diabetic doesn't get enough insulin to counteract the insulin resistance, glucose will build up in their blood, which is not good.

Type 2 diabetics have the following symptoms:

• They lose significant weight in just a short time
• They become more prone to infections
• They are unusually hungry or thirsty
• They urinate excessively
• They have high blood glucose levels (which is what hyperglycemia is)

In the case of this ICD-10 code, the patient has hyperglycemia, meaning they have high blood glucose levels. This is not good because they can develop hyperosmolar syndrome, which is a life-threatening condition characterized by the high concentration of salt and glucose in the blood.

Oral antidiabetic drugs and other treatments will be prescribed and given by healthcare providers for those who suffer from this type of diabetes.
