ICD-10-CM Code R58
Hemorrhage, not elsewhere classified
Billable Code
Billable codes are sufficient justification for admission to an acute care hospital when used a principal diagnosis.R58 is a billable ICD code used to specify a diagnosis of hemorrhage, not elsewhere classified. A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis.
The ICD code R58 is used to code Bleeding
Bleeding, technically known as hemorrhaging or haemorrhaging (see American and British spelling differences), is blood escaping from the circulatory system. Bleeding can occur internally, where blood leaks from blood vessels inside the body, or externally, either through a natural opening such as the mouth, nose, ear, urethra, vagina or anus, or through a break in the skin. Hypovolemia is a massive decrease in blood volume, and death by excessive loss of blood is referred to as exsanguination. Typically, a healthy person can endure a loss of 10–15% of the total blood volume without serious medical difficulties (by comparison, blood donation typically takes 8–10% of the donor's blood volume). The stopping or controlling of bleeding is called hemostasis and is an important part of both first aid and surgery.
