ICD-10 Coding for Abnormal Antinuclear Antibody(R76.0, R76.8)
This diagnosis requires careful attention to:
Patient presents with symptoms consistent with autoimmune disease. ANA test results show abnormal levels.
ANA titer and pattern: [insert results]. No specific autoimmune disease diagnosed at this time.
No, lupus has its own specific codes (M32.-). This code is for abnormal ANA without a specific autoimmune disease diagnosis.
This code should be used when a patient has abnormal ANA test results, but no specific autoimmune disease has been diagnosed.
