About T75.830S

T75.830S is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for Gulf war illness, sequela. It belongs to category T75 (other and unspecified effects of other external causes), block T66-T78 (other and unspecified effects of external causes) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). 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 "S" means sequela: use it for complications or conditions that arise as a direct result of the original condition.

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 922 (Other Injury, Poisoning and Toxic Effect Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 1.6238) and DRG 923 (Other Injury, Poisoning and Toxic Effect Diagnoses without MCC, relative weight 0.9973), in MDC 21 (Injuries, Poisonings and Toxic Effects of Drugs), 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 FY2026, effective October 1, 2025.
