D69 ICD-10-CM Code: Purpura and other hemorrhagic conditions

D69 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for purpura and other hemorrhagic conditions. D69 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 coagulation defects, purpura and other hemorrhagic conditions (d65-d69).

Header codes like D69 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 D69'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.
