D60 ICD-10-CM Code: Acquired pure red cell aplasia [erythroblastopenia]

D60 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for acquired pure red cell aplasia [erythroblastopenia]. D60 sits in the ICD-10-CM chapter for diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism (d50-d89), within the section covering aplastic and other anemias and other bone marrow failure syndromes (d60-d64).

Header codes like D60 cannot be reported on claims directly, they organize child codes that share clinical context but the actual diagnosis must be coded to the highest level of specificity supported by the documentation. Coders should look at D60's child codes and select the one that matches the patient's documented presentation, since payers reject header codes submitted as the primary diagnosis. For risk adjustment workflows, header codes never contribute to a Medicare Advantage member's RAF score on their own; only billable child codes that happen to map to a payment HCC affect risk-adjusted plan payments.
