About G47.36

G47.36 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for sleep related hypoventilation in conditions classified elsewhere. It belongs to category G47 (sleep disorders), block G40-G47 (episodic and paroxysmal disorders) and chapter 6 (diseases of the nervous system). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within G47.3 (sleep apnea), G47.36 is specifically for sleep related hypoventilation in conditions classified elsewhere. Related codes cover unspecified (G47.30), primary central sleep apnea (G47.31), high altitude periodic breathing (G47.32), obstructive sleep apnea (adult) (pediatric) (G47.33), idiopathic sleep related nonobstructive alveolar hypoventilation (G47.34), congenital central alveolar hypoventilation syndrome (G47.35), central sleep apnea in conditions classified elsewhere (G47.37) and other sleep apnea (G47.39).

Code first: underlying condition.

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 011 (Tracheostomy for Face, Mouth and Neck Diagnoses or Laryngectomy with MCC, relative weight 5.6154), DRG 012 (Tracheostomy for Face, Mouth and Neck Diagnoses or Laryngectomy with CC, relative weight 4.381), DRG 013 (Tracheostomy for Face, Mouth and Neck Diagnoses or Laryngectomy without CC/MCC, relative weight 2.7307), DRG 154 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 1.5921), DRG 155 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 0.9322) and DRG 156 (Other Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6659), in Pre-MDC and MDC 03 (Diseases and Disorders of the Ear, Nose, Mouth and Throat), 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 is a manifestation code, so it describes the effect of an underlying disease and can't be the principal diagnosis. Code the underlying condition first.

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 327.26 (sleep related hypoventilation/hypoxemia in conditions classifiable elsewhere).

Which one applies depends on whether it is the principal diagnosis and on the rest of the claim.
