About E89

E89 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for postprocedural endocrine and metabolic complications and disorders, not elsewhere classified. It belongs to block E89 (postprocedural endocrine and metabolic complications and disorders, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 4 (endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 8 subcodes must be used instead.

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: E89.0 (hypothyroidism), E89.1 (hypoinsulinemia), E89.2 (hypoparathyroidism), E89.3 (hypopituitarism), E89.4 (failure), E89.5 (hypofunction), E89.6 (hypofunction) and E89.8 (disorders).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of E89, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: intraoperative complications of endocrine system organ or structure (E36.0-, E36.1-, E36.8).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
