About K62.0

K62.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for anal polyp. It belongs to category K62 (other diseases of anus and rectum), block K55-K64 (other diseases of intestines) 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 K62 (other diseases of anus and rectum), K62.0 is specifically for anal polyp. Related codes cover rectal polyp (K62.1), anal prolapse (K62.2), rectal prolapse (K62.3), stenosis of anus and rectum (K62.4), hemorrhage of anus and rectum (K62.5), ulcer of anus and rectum (K62.6), radiation proctitis (K62.7), other specified diseases of anus and rectum (K62.8) 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 393 (Other Digestive System Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 1.5881), DRG 394 (Other Digestive System Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 0.9228) and DRG 395 (Other Digestive System Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6382), 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 569.0 (anal and rectal polyp).
