About K52.82

K52.82 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for eosinophilic colitis. It belongs to category K52 (other and unspecified noninfective gastroenteritis and colitis), block K50-K52 (noninfective enteritis and colitis) 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 K52.8 (other specified noninfective gastroenteritis and colitis), K52.82 is specifically for eosinophilic colitis. Related codes cover eosinophilic gastritis or gastroenteritis (K52.81), microscopic colitis (K52.83) and other specified noninfective gastroenteritis and colitis (K52.89).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of K52.82, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: allergic proctocolitis (K52.29), food-induced eosinophilic proctocolitis (K52.29), food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (FPIES) (K52.21), food protein-induced proctocolitis (K52.29) and 1 more.

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 391 (Esophagitis, Gastroenteritis and Miscellaneous Digestive Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.2392) and DRG 392 (Esophagitis, Gastroenteritis and Miscellaneous Digestive Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.7645), 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 558.42 (eosinophilic colitis).
