| ICD-10: | R70.1 |
| Short Description: | Abnormal plasma viscosity |
| Long Description: | Abnormal plasma viscosity |
| Status: | Valid for Submission |
| Version: | ICD-10-CM 2023 |
| Code Classification: |
R70.1 is a billable ICD-10 code used to specify a medical diagnosis of abnormal plasma viscosity. The code is valid during the fiscal year 2023 from October 01, 2022 through September 30, 2023 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions.

Clinical Information
- Reticulocytosis-. an increase in circulating reticulocytes, which is among the simplest and most reliable signs of accelerated erythrocyte production. reticulocytosis occurs during active blood regeneration (stimulation of red bone marrow) and in certain types of anemia, particularly congenital hemolytic anemia.
- Reticulocytosis-. a laboratory test result indicating an increased number of reticulocytes in the peripheral blood.
