The correct elevated triglycerides and LDL coding uses E78.2 for mixed hyperlipidemia. Use this code when both lipid fractions are elevated. For isolated elevated LDL (normal triglycerides), use E78.0. Isolated elevated triglycerides (normal LDL), use E78.1. For long-term statin therapy, add Z79.899. Screening without diagnosis, use Z13.220. Do not use E78.5 (unspecified) when specific lipid data is available? Elevated […]
