It can lead to several autoimmune diseases like hemolytic anemia, hereditary spherocytosis, macrocytic anemia, etc. If the MCHC levels are below 28 percent, it is considered extremely low, which results in several parasitic infections, anemia, and cancer.

The range varies from 32 to 34 percent in children. The MCHC level below 28 percent is considered extremely low, indicating several conditions like Crohn’s disease, celiac disease, and various parasitic infections. The MCHC levels above 36 g/dl define the high levels and hemoglobin concentration in the blood. The high MCHC levels indicate the condition of folic acid and Vitamin B12 deficiency.

- Polycythaemia, coronary artery disease, and lung disease can all be caused by high MCHC levels.
It's important to remember that persons who live at higher elevations have more hemoglobin than those in the flat regions. Anything outside of the typical range is seen as abnormal. The typical MCHC range is 33–36 grams per decilitre (g/dL) in adults.
