What are the diagnosis codes? Enter an ICD-10-CM code for each space provided.

Answer :

Final answer:

The patient's diagnoses requiring ICD-10-CM codes include diabetes with renal and neurological complications, acute neck pain, COPD, rhinorrhea, chronic kidney disease, hyperlipidemia, major depressive disorder, and GERD, each assigned a specific code reflecting the condition.

Explanation:

The patient's visit involves various diagnoses which need corresponding ICD-10-CM codes. For the conditions mentioned, the following ICD-10-CM codes would be applied:

  • Diabetes mellitus with renal manifestations Type II - E11.21
  • Diabetes with neurological complications - E11.40
  • Acute neck pain - M54.2
  • Muscle spasms of head and neck - M62.830
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) - J44.9
  • Rhinorrhea - J30.9
  • Chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 2 - N18.2
  • Hyperlipidemia - E78.5
  • Major depressive disorder, recurrent, moderate - F33.1
  • Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) with esophagitis - K21.0

These diagnoses cover a broad spectrum of the patient's current health issues, highlighting chronic conditions and their sequelae, such as complications related to diabetes, COPD, and GERD, all of which are significant for medical coding and billing purposes. Each code should be used precisely as per the patient's documented medical conditions to ensure accurate billing and record-keeping.
