ICD-10-CM Code For Other Hyperalimentation: Group Overview

The International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision, Clinical Modification (ICD-10-CM) code group E67 includes disorders of other hyperalimentation such as excessive nutritional intake and related metabolic disturbances not classified under standard overweight or obesity codes. These ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes are used to document clinical scenarios involving abnormal weight gain, nutritional excess, and related metabolic complications, capturing disease severity and associated clinical complexity relevant to this group. Accurate coding within the ICD-10-CM E67 group supports proper claim adjudication, complete clinical documentation, and appropriate reimbursement.

ICD-10-CM E67: Other Hyperalimentation Overview

The ICD-10-CM E67 group covers disorders related to excessive nutritional intake leading to abnormal weight gain or metabolic disturbance. These diagnoses affect metabolic and nutritional systems and include conditions not classified under simple overweight or obesity codes. Accurate coding ensures that clinical complexity is captured and supports appropriate reimbursement for services related to management of hyperalimentation.

When to Use

Use a code from this group when a documented diagnosis identifies excessive nutritional intake or overnutrition resulting in clinical or metabolic disturbances that are not classified under general obesity codes. These codes apply when clinical documentation indicates that the hyperalimentation itself or its complications are the focus of care or impact treatment decisions.

Typical Clinical Scenarios

An adult patient with chronic excessive caloric intake, central adiposity, and a BMI of 32 presents to primary care for weight-related health maintenance and counseling. History reveals years of progressive weight gain despite attempts at diet modification; there are mild functional limitations but no acute symptoms. A diagnosis from this group is assigned to document hyperalimentation contributing to overweight/obesity for longitudinal care and risk stratification. Typical codes: E67.0, E67.1
A pediatric patient is brought to the outpatient clinic for evaluation of rapid weight gain and signs of metabolic derangement (acanthosis nigricans, elevated fasting insulin). The family reports high-calorie feeding patterns and a sedentary lifestyle; the clinician documents excessive nutritional intake as a primary contributor to the child’s overweight status. A code from this group is used to capture hyperalimentation as the etiologic factor in the child’s overweight/obesity diagnosis. Typical codes: E67.2, E67.3
An elderly hospitalized patient with multiple comorbidities is admitted for exacerbation of congestive heart failure and has documented over-nutrition contributing to fluid and weight overload complicating their recovery. The inpatient team documents other hyperalimentation as a comorbid condition that may impact medical management and discharge planning. Typical codes: E67.8
