About D68.020

D68.020 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for von Willebrand disease, type 2A. It belongs to category D68 (other coagulation defects), block D65-D69 (coagulation defects, purpura and other hemorrhagic conditions) and chapter 3 (diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within D68.02 (von Willebrand disease, type 2), D68.020 is specifically for von Willebrand disease, type 2A. Related codes cover B (D68.021), M (D68.022), N (D68.023) and unspecified (D68.029).

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 813 (Coagulation Disorders, relative weight 1.5257), in MDC 16 (Diseases and Disorders of the Blood and Blood Forming Organs and Immunological Disorders), 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 FY2023, effective October 1, 2022.
