ICD-10 Code for Hemoglobinemia
The ICD-10-CM code for hemoglobinemia is D59.9 — Acquired hemolytic anemia, unspecified. This is the code the Alphabetic Index gives for hemoglobinemia with no further qualifier, valid for FY2027 (October 1, 2026 – September 30, 2027).
D59.9 is billable but unspecified. If the documentation names a type, site or cause, one of the more specific codes below is likely expected.
