ICD-10-CM Codes›E00–E89›E89›E89
- Billable — Valid for Submission
- CC — Complication or Comorbidity
- Not Chronic
E89.89 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other postprocedural endocrine and metabolic complications and disorders. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 919 through 921. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a complication or comorbidity (CC) and moves an inpatient stay to a higher severity level within its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 26 closely related codes. Coders also document this condition as metabolic complication of procedures. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Postprocedural or postoperative endocrine or metabolic complication.

Notes
General instructions on how these codes are used.
- All neoplasms, whether functionally active or not, are classified in Chapter 2. Appropriate codes in this chapter (i.e. E05.8, E07.0, E16-E31, E34.-) may be used as additional codes to indicate either functional activity by neoplasms and ectopic endocrine tissue or hyperfunction and hypofunction of endocrine glands associated with neoplasms and other conditions classified elsewhere.
