About L24.7
L24.7 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for irritant contact dermatitis due to plants, except food. It belongs to category L24 (irritant contact dermatitis), block L20-L30 (dermatitis and eczema) and chapter 12 (diseases of the skin and subcutaneous tissue). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within L24 (irritant contact dermatitis), L24.7 is specifically for irritant contact dermatitis due to plants, except food. Related codes cover due to detergents (L24.0), due to oils and greases (L24.1), due to solvents (L24.2), due to cosmetics (L24.3), due to drugs in contact with skin (L24.4), due to other chemical products (L24.5), due to food in contact with skin (L24.6), due to other agents (L24.8) and 3 more.
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of L24.7, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: allergy NOS to pollen (J30.1).
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 606 (Minor Skin Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5728) and DRG 607 (Minor Skin Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.8772), in MDC 09 (Diseases and Disorders of the Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast), 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 692.6 (contact dermatitis and other eczema due to plants [except food]).
