I am getting mixed information and i want to make sure I am capturing correct level of service.

If patient has:
  • E11.65 – Type 2 diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia
  • E11.36 – Type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic cataract

For MDM (E/M coding): Diabetes is generally considered one chronic illness? even if it has multiple manifestations. Do these count as two chronic conditions or one?


Appreciate feedback
