About O24.415
O24.415 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for gestational diabetes mellitus in pregnancy, controlled by oral hypoglycemic drugs. It belongs to category O24 (diabetes mellitus in pregnancy, childbirth, and the puerperium), block O20-O29 (other maternal disorders predominantly related to pregnancy) and chapter 15 (pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within O24.41 (gestational diabetes mellitus in pregnancy), O24.415 is specifically for gestational diabetes mellitus in pregnancy, controlled by oral hypoglycemic drugs. Related codes cover diet controlled (O24.410), insulin controlled (O24.414) and unspecified control (O24.419).
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 817 (Other Antepartum Diagnoses with O.R. Procedures with MCC, relative weight 2.0534), DRG 818 (Other Antepartum Diagnoses with O.R. Procedures with CC, relative weight 1.2942), DRG 819 (Other Antepartum Diagnoses with O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7739), DRG 831 (Other Antepartum Diagnoses without O.R. Procedures with MCC, relative weight 1.1558), DRG 832 (Other Antepartum Diagnoses without O.R. Procedures with CC, relative weight 0.7585) and DRG 833 (Other Antepartum Diagnoses without O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.5002), in MDC 14 (Pregnancy, Childbirth and the Puerperium), 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 treats this as a maternity diagnosis, expected only for patients age 9 through 64.
It is on the CMS list of diagnoses consistent only with female patients (the sex-conflict edit itself was retired in FY2025).
It was added in FY2017, effective October 1, 2016.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 648.83 (abnormal glucose tolerance of mother, antepartum condition or complication).
