E09 — Drug or chemical induced diabetes mellitus

Not billable

Is E09 billable?

No — E09 is a non-billable header code. E09 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 60 billable codes beneath E09.

Excludes1 — never code together

The conditions below can never be reported together with E09 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • diabetes mellitus due to underlying condition (E08.-)
  • gestational diabetes (O24.4-)
  • neonatal diabetes mellitus (P70.2)
  • postpancreatectomy diabetes mellitus (E13.-)
  • postprocedural diabetes mellitus (E13.-)
  • secondary diabetes mellitus NEC (E13.-)
  • type 1 diabetes mellitus (E10.-)
  • type 2 diabetes mellitus (E11.-)

Code first

The underlying condition below must be sequenced before E09. E09 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.

  • poisoning due to drug or toxin, if applicable (T36-T65 with fifth or sixth character 1-4)

Use additional code

Report an additional code alongside E09 to fully describe the condition. E09 is sequenced first.

  • code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5)
  • code to identify control using:
  • injectable non-insulin antidiabetic drugs (Z79.85)
  • insulin (Z79.4)
  • oral antidiabetic drugs (Z79.84)
  • oral hypoglycemic drugs (Z79.84)

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from Chapter 4

The conditions below can never be reported together with E09 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • transitory endocrine and metabolic disorders specific to newborn (P70-P74)

What codes fall under E09? (9)

How long has E09 existed?

E09 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.

Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.

Which codes are confused with E09?

ICD-10-CM declares these codes mutually exclusive with E09 — exactly one of each pair can be correct for a given encounter.
