ICD-10 Code E83.89 – Other disorders of mineral metabolism (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code E83.89 – Other disorders of mineral metabolism
What it is
E83.89 identifies mineral metabolism disorders that do not fit a more specific ICD-10-CM code. Use it for documented abnormalities in the body’s handling of minerals when the record does not name a narrower diagnosis.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Records may describe abnormal mineral balance, related metabolic findings, or a nonspecific disorder of mineral metabolism without a more precise labeled condition.
When to use this code
Use this code when the clinician documents a mineral metabolism disorder but does not specify a more exact type, such as a named calcium, phosphate, or other mineral disorder. It also fits when the note states “other” or “unspecified” mineral metabolism abnormality after review. Check documentation for the exact diagnosis wording.
Do not use for
Do not use E83.89 when the chart clearly identifies a more specific metabolic or endocrine disorder with its own code. Avoid it for simple abnormal lab results without a documented diagnosis.
Coding tip
Code the most specific mineral disorder documented, and query the provider if the record only says “mineral abnormality.”
