K22.70Barrett's esophagus without dysplasia

K22.70 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Barrett's esophagus without dysplasia. It belongs to category K22 (other diseases of esophagus), block K20-K31 (diseases of esophagus, stomach and duodenum) and chapter 11 (diseases of the digestive 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 K22.7, choose K22.70 (without dysplasia) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: with dysplasia (K22.71).

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 380 (Complicated Peptic Ulcer with MCC, relative weight 1.9245), DRG 381 (Complicated Peptic Ulcer with CC, relative weight 1.0838) and DRG 382 (Complicated Peptic Ulcer without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7281), in MDC 06 (Diseases and Disorders of the Digestive 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 530.85 (Barrett's esophagus).
