The ICD-10 code for Purpura and other hemorrhagic conditions is D69.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D69 – Purpura and other hemorrhagic conditions

What it is

D69 identifies purpura and other bleeding disorders involving the skin or clotting system. Use it when the record describes hemorrhagic conditions not better classified elsewhere.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include purpura, petechiae, easy bruising, or other evidence of abnormal bleeding. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use D69 when the provider documents purpura or a nonspecific hemorrhagic condition and no more specific ICD-10 code applies. It also fits cases where the diagnosis is recorded broadly as a bleeding disorder. Check documentation if the note names a specific coagulation defect or platelet disorder.

Do not use for

Do not use D69 for hereditary coagulation defects, thrombocytopenia, or anticoagulant-related bleeding when a more specific code is documented. Check documentation.

Coding tip

Code the most specific hemorrhagic diagnosis documented, and verify whether the condition is acquired, hereditary, or medication-related.
