About M02.19

M02.19 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Postdysenteric arthropathy, multiple sites. It belongs to category M02 (postinfective and reactive arthropathies), block M00-M02 (infectious arthropathies) and chapter 13 (diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective 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 M02.1 (Postdysenteric arthropathy), M02.19 is specifically for Postdysenteric arthropathy, multiple sites. Related codes cover unspecified site (M02.10), shoulder (M02.11), elbow (M02.12), wrist (M02.13), hand (M02.14), hip (M02.15), knee (M02.16), ankle and foot (M02.17) and 1 more.

Code first underlying disease, such as: congenital syphilis [Clutton's joints] (A50.5), enteritis due to Yersinia enterocolitica (A04.6), infective endocarditis (I33.0) and viral hepatitis (B15-B19).

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 553 (Bone Diseases and Arthropathies with MCC, relative weight 1.2494) and DRG 554 (Bone Diseases and Arthropathies without MCC, relative weight 0.8331), in MDC 08 (Diseases and Disorders of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue), 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 711.39 (Postdysenteric arthropathy, multiple sites).
