About D30.4

D30.4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for benign neoplasm of urethra. It belongs to category D30 (benign neoplasm of urinary organs), block D10-D36 (benign neoplasms, except benign 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 D30 (benign neoplasm of urinary organs), D30.4 is specifically for benign neoplasm of urethra. Related codes cover kidney (D30.0), renal pelvis (D30.1), ureter (D30.2), bladder (D30.3), other specified urinary organs (D30.8) and urinary organ, unspecified (D30.9).

Don't report D30.4 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: benign neoplasm of urethral orifice of bladder (D30.3).

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 656 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm with MCC, relative weight 3.2786), DRG 657 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm with CC, relative weight 1.8365), DRG 658 (Kidney and Ureter Procedures for Neoplasm without CC/MCC, relative weight 1.538), DRG 686 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Neoplasms with MCC, relative weight 1.7237), DRG 687 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Neoplasms with CC, relative weight 0.9957) and DRG 688 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Neoplasms without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7333), in MDC 11 (Diseases and Disorders of the Kidney and Urinary Tract), 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 hasn't changed since.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 223.81 (benign neoplasm of urethra).
