Use additional code — inherited from D3A
Report an additional code alongside D3A.02 to fully describe the condition. D3A.02 is sequenced first.
- code to identify any associated endocrine syndrome, such as:
- carcinoid syndrome (E34.00)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from D3A
The conditions below are not part of D3A.02, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, D3A.02 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- benign pancreatic islet cell tumors (D13.7)
Code also — inherited from D3A
Two codes may be needed to describe the condition fully. Whether D3A.02 is sequenced first depends on the reason for the encounter.
- any associated multiple endocrine neoplasia [MEN] syndromes (E31.2-)
