About M80.021D
M80.021D is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for age-related osteoporosis with current pathological fracture, right humerus, subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing. It belongs to category M80 (osteoporosis with current pathological fracture), block M80-M85 (disorders of bone density and structure) 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.
The 7th character "D" means subsequent encounter for fracture with routine healing: use it for encounters after active treatment, while the patient is healing or recovering.
Use an additional code to identify major osseous defect, if applicable (M89.7-).
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 559 (Aftercare, Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue with MCC, relative weight 1.8088), DRG 560 (Aftercare, Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue with CC, relative weight 1.1238) and DRG 561 (Aftercare, Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.8258), 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.
The Medicare Code Editor expects this diagnosis only for patients age 15 through 124.
It is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.
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 V54.21 (aftercare for healing pathologic fracture of upper arm).
