About R11.10
R11.10 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for vomiting, unspecified. It belongs to category R11 (nausea and vomiting), block R10-R19 (symptoms and signs involving the digestive system and abdomen) and chapter 18 (symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Within R11.1, choose R11.10 (unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: without nausea (R11.11), Projectile vomiting (R11.12), of fecal matter (R11.13), Bilious vomiting (R11.14), Cyclical vomiting syndrome unrelated to migraine (R11.15) and cannabis hyperemesis syndrome (R11.16).
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 391 (Esophagitis, Gastroenteritis and Miscellaneous Digestive Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.2392) and DRG 392 (Esophagitis, Gastroenteritis and Miscellaneous Digestive Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.7645), in MDC 06 (Diseases and Disorders of the Digestive System), 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 536.2 (persistent vomiting) and 787.03 (vomiting alone).
