Mr. smith presents to the office for a screening test to detect sickle cell disorder. what icd-10-cm code(s) is/are reported?

The icd-10-cm code for sickle cell anaemia is 57. Sickle cell anaemia is a condition in which the red blood cells are deformed, forming a crescent shape. These cells do not last long, resulting in anaemia. They also tend to block blood vessels. It is thought that sickle cell anaemia persisted in populations as individuals with this trait were more resistant to malaria.
