About E75.243

E75.243 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Niemann-Pick disease type D. It belongs to category E75 (disorders of sphingolipid metabolism and other lipid storage disorders), block E70-E88 (metabolic disorders) 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 E75.24 (Niemann-Pick disease), E75.243 is specifically for Niemann-Pick disease type D. Related codes cover type A (E75.240), type B (E75.241), type C (E75.242), type A/B (E75.244), other Niemann-Pick disease (E75.248) and unspecified (E75.249).

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 642 (Inborn and Other Disorders of Metabolism, relative weight 1.3219), 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 272.7 (lipidoses).
