About P83.81
P83.81 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for umbilical granuloma. It belongs to category P83 (other conditions of integument specific to newborn), block P80-P83 (conditions involving the integument and temperature regulation of newborn) and chapter 16 (certain conditions originating in the perinatal period). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within P83.8 (other specified conditions of integument specific to newborn), P83.81 is specifically for umbilical granuloma. Related codes cover other specified conditions of integument specific to newborn (P83.88).
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of P83.81, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: Granulomatous disorder of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, unspecified (L92.9).
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 795 (Normal Newborn, relative weight 0.2022), in MDC 15 (Newborns and Other Neonates with Conditions Originating in the Perinatal Period), 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 is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.
It was added in FY2018, effective October 1, 2017.
Before ICD-10, this condition was coded in ICD-9-CM as 778.8 (other specified conditions involving the integument of fetus and newborn).
