About F50.84

F50.84 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for rumination disorder in adults. It belongs to category F50 (eating disorders), block F50-F59 (behavioral syndromes associated with physiological disturbances and physical factors) and chapter 5 (mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental disorders). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within F50.8 (other eating disorders), F50.84 is specifically for rumination disorder in adults. Related codes cover binge eating disorder (F50.81), Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (F50.82), Pica in adults (F50.83) and other specified eating disorder (F50.89).

Don't report F50.84 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: rumination disorder in infancy and childhood (F98.21).

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 887 (Other Mental Disorder Diagnoses, relative weight 1.1139), in MDC 19 (Mental 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.

The Medicare Code Editor expects this diagnosis only for patients age 15 through 124.

It was added in FY2025, effective October 1, 2024.
