About K95.89

K95.89 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other complications of other bariatric procedure. It belongs to category K95 (complications of bariatric procedures), block K90-K95 (other diseases of the digestive system) 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 K95.8, choose K95.89 (Other complications of other bariatric procedure) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: infection due to other bariatric procedure (K95.81).

Use an additional code, if applicable, to further specify complication.

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" 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 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 539.89 (other complications of other bariatric procedure).
