ICD-10 Code D68.32 – Hemorrhagic disorder due to extrinsic circulating anticoagulants (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D68.32 – Hemorrhagic disorder due to extrinsic circulating anticoagulants
What it is
D68.32 identifies bleeding problems caused by an anticoagulant that is circulating in the blood from an outside source, such as prescribed therapy. Use it when the record links the hemorrhagic disorder to that medication effect.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly documented findings include unusual bruising, prolonged bleeding, or other hemorrhagic manifestations attributed to anticoagulant exposure.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents a hemorrhagic disorder caused by an extrinsic circulating anticoagulant, and the bleeding is not better classified elsewhere. It may apply when anticoagulant therapy is the stated cause of the bleeding disorder. If the cause is unclear, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for bleeding disorders unrelated to anticoagulant exposure, or for routine anticoagulant use without a bleeding complication. If the chart describes a different coagulopathy, code that condition instead.
Coding tip
Code the documented bleeding disorder only when the provider clearly connects it to an extrinsic anticoagulant.
