About G61.82
G61.82 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for multifocal motor neuropathy. It belongs to category G61 (inflammatory polyneuropathy), block G60-G65 (polyneuropathies and other disorders of the peripheral nervous system) 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 G61.8 (other inflammatory polyneuropathies), G61.82 is specifically for multifocal motor neuropathy. Related codes cover chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuritis (G61.81) and other inflammatory polyneuropathies (G61.89).
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 073 (Cranial and Peripheral Nerve Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5779) and DRG 074 (Cranial and Peripheral Nerve Disorders without MCC, relative weight 1.0173), in MDC 01 (Diseases and Disorders of the Nervous System), 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 FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 357.89 (other inflammatory and toxic neuropathy).
