M11.239Other chondrocalcinosis, unspecified wrist

M11.239 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other chondrocalcinosis, unspecified wrist. It belongs to category M11 (other crystal arthropathies), block M05-M14 (inflammatory polyarthropathies) 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 M11.23, choose M11.239 (unspecified wrist) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: right wrist (M11.231) and left wrist (M11.232).

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 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 712.33 (chondrocalcinosis, unspecified, forearm).
