Postop blood loss anemia after total hip
In ICD 9 if a pt had "Postop blood loss anemia" following an ortho surgery we would query the surgeon to see if the blood loss was expected or a complication. If it was we would use two codes.
I have found M96.83 "Post procedural hemorrhage and hematoma of the musculoskeletal structure following a procedure" and D62 " Acute posthemorrhagic Anemia".
Does anyone know if this rule stands in ICD 10? I can't find anything to the contrary.
