What it is

This code identifies hypoglycemia with coma in a patient who has other specified diabetes mellitus. Use it when the record links the coma to low blood sugar and specifies this diabetes category.

Clinical signs

Clinical features may include loss of consciousness, severe confusion, seizure activity, or inability to awaken, with documentation indicating hypoglycemia. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use E13.641 when the provider documents other specified diabetes mellitus and states that the patient had hypoglycemia with coma. The coma should be attributed to the hypoglycemic episode, not another cause. Check documentation if the diabetes type or the relationship is unclear.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for hypoglycemia without coma, or when coma is due to another condition. If the chart does not support other specified diabetes mellitus, choose the more accurate diabetes code.

Coding tip

Confirm both the diabetes category and the coma linkage to hypoglycemia before assigning E13.641.
