About B94.0
B94.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for sequelae of trachoma. It belongs to category B94 (sequelae of other and unspecified infectious and parasitic diseases), block B90-B94 (sequelae of infectious and parasitic diseases) and chapter 1 (certain infectious and parasitic diseases). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within B94 (sequelae of other and unspecified infectious and parasitic diseases), B94.0 is specifically for sequelae of trachoma. Related codes cover viral encephalitis (B94.1), viral hepatitis (B94.2), other specified infectious and parasitic diseases (B94.8) and unspecified infectious and parasitic disease (B94.9).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 124 (Other Disorders of the Eye with MCC or Thrombolytic Agent, relative weight 1.2471) and DRG 125 (Other Disorders of the Eye without MCC, relative weight 0.7702), in MDC 02 (Diseases and Disorders of the Eye), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
It is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.
It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 139.1 (late effects of trachoma).
