About C7A.095
C7A.095 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for malignant carcinoid tumor of the midgut, unspecified. It belongs to category C7A (malignant neuroendocrine tumors), block C7A (malignant neuroendocrine tumors) and chapter 2 (neoplasms). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within C7A.09, choose C7A.095 (tumor of the midgut, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: tumor of the bronchus and lung (C7A.090), tumor of the thymus (C7A.091), tumor of the stomach (C7A.092), tumor of the kidney (C7A.093), tumor of the foregut, unspecified (C7A.094), tumor of the hindgut, unspecified (C7A.096) and tumors of other sites (C7A.098).
Use an additional code to identify any associated endocrine syndrome, such as: carcinoid syndrome (E34.00).
As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 374 (Digestive Malignancy with MCC, relative weight 2.1109), DRG 375 (Digestive Malignancy with CC, relative weight 1.1838) and DRG 376 (Digestive Malignancy without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.8929), in MDC 06 (Diseases and Disorders of the Digestive System), 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 has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015, and changed in FY2017 (title revised).
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 209.26 (malignant carcinoid tumor of midgut, not otherwise specified).
