About C86.01

C86.01 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, in remission. It belongs to category C86 (other specified types of T/NK-cell lymphoma), block C81-C96 (malignant neoplasms of lymphoid, hematopoietic and related tissue) 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 C86.0 (extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type), C86.01 is specifically for extranodal NK/T-cell lymphoma, nasal type, in remission. Related codes cover not having achieved remission (C86.00).

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 011 (Tracheostomy for Face, Mouth and Neck Diagnoses or Laryngectomy with MCC, relative weight 5.6154), DRG 012 (Tracheostomy for Face, Mouth and Neck Diagnoses or Laryngectomy with CC, relative weight 4.381), DRG 013 (Tracheostomy for Face, Mouth and Neck Diagnoses or Laryngectomy without CC/MCC, relative weight 2.7307), DRG 820 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCC, relative weight 6.2481), DRG 821 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CC, relative weight 2.2023), DRG 822 (Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC, relative weight 1.1272) and 9 more, in Pre-MDC, MDC 17 (Myeloproliferative Diseases and Disorders, Poorly Differentiated Neoplasms) and MDC 25 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infections), 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 was added in FY2025, effective October 1, 2024.
