About K52.831

K52.831 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Collagenous 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 K52.83 (microscopic colitis), K52.831 is specifically for Collagenous colitis. Related codes cover lymphocytic colitis (K52.832), other microscopic colitis (K52.838) and unspecified (K52.839).

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 was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.

Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 558.9 (other and unspecified noninfectious gastroenteritis and colitis).
