Example: Prednisone-induced diabetes, no complications, patient started on insulin: T38.0X5A (adverse effect, glucocorticoids, initial encounter) E09.9 (drug-induced diabetes, no complications) Z79.4 (long-term insulin use) Example: Steroid-induced diabetes with polyneuropathy: T38.0X5A E09.42 (drug-induced diabetes with polyneuropathy) Z79.4 (if on insulin) The Most Common Error Here Defaulting to E11 because the patient is a new diabetic. If steroids caused the diabetes, E09 is always correct regardless of the patients age, weight, or family history
