About E04.2

E04.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for nontoxic multinodular goiter. It belongs to category E04 (other nontoxic goiter), block E00-E07 (disorders of thyroid gland) and chapter 4 (endocrine, nutritional and metabolic 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 E04 (other nontoxic goiter), E04.2 is specifically for nontoxic multinodular goiter. Related codes cover nontoxic diffuse goiter (E04.0), nontoxic single thyroid nodule (E04.1), other specified nontoxic goiter (E04.8) and nontoxic goiter, unspecified (E04.9).

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 643 (Endocrine Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.6139), DRG 644 (Endocrine Disorders with CC, relative weight 1.0044) and DRG 645 (Endocrine Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7459), in MDC 10 (Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic Diseases and 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 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 241.1 (nontoxic multinodular goiter).
