Z83.43Family history of other disorder of lipoprotein metabolism and other lipidemias

Z83.43 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for family history of other disorder of lipoprotein metabolism and other lipidemias. It belongs to category Z83 (family history of other specific disorders), block Z77-Z99 (persons with potential health hazards related to family and personal history and certain conditions influencing health status) and chapter 21 (factors influencing health status and contact with health services). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 2 subcodes must be used instead.

Within Z83.4, choose Z83.43 (other disorder of lipoprotein metabolism and other lipidemias) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: multiple endocrine neoplasia [MEN] syndrome (Z83.41), familial hypercholesterolemia (Z83.42) and other endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (Z83.49).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: Z83.430 (lipoprotein(a)) and Z83.438 (lipidemia).

It was added in FY2019, effective October 1, 2018.
