I found this thread with ICD-9 codes:
https://www.aapc.com/memberarea/forums/showthread.php?t=67748
When coding out G6PD deficiency starting with "deficiency" and then glucose-6-phosphatase, it takes me to either glucose-6-phosphatase deficiency (von Gierke disease) or glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase anemia.
My patient has G6PD deficiency, but there is no mention of an anemia. I'm not familiar enough with this disorder to know whether either of the above conditions is appropriate.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
