About J10.01

J10.01 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for influenza due to other identified influenza virus with the same other identified influenza virus pneumonia. It belongs to category J10 (influenza due to other identified influenza virus), block J09-J18 (influenza and pneumonia) and chapter 10 (diseases of the respiratory 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 J10.0, choose J10.01 (the same other identified influenza virus pneumonia) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified type of pneumonia (J10.00) and other specified pneumonia (J10.08).

As a secondary diagnosis it is an MCC (major complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the highest-paying "with MCC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 177 (Respiratory Infections and Inflammations with MCC, relative weight 1.6092), DRG 178 (Respiratory Infections and Inflammations with CC, relative weight 0.9744), DRG 179 (Respiratory Infections and Inflammations without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7345), DRG 193 (Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy with MCC, relative weight 1.2825), DRG 194 (Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy with CC, relative weight 0.7888) and DRG 195 (Simple Pneumonia and Pleurisy without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6063), in MDC 04 (Diseases and Disorders of the Respiratory 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 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 487.0 (influenza with pneumonia).
