About Z01.83

Z01.83 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for encounter for blood typing. It belongs to category Z01 (encounter for other special examination without complaint, suspected or reported diagnosis), block Z00-Z13 (persons encountering health services for examinations) and chapter 21 (factors influencing health status and contact with health services). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within Z01.8 (encounter for other specified special examinations), Z01.83 is specifically for encounter for blood typing. Related codes cover preprocedural examinations (Z01.81), allergy testing (Z01.82), antibody response examination (Z01.84) and other specified special examinations (Z01.89).

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 951 (Other Factors Influencing Health Status, relative weight 0.5577), in MDC 23 (Factors Influencing Health Status and Other Contacts with Health Services), 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 not acceptable as the principal diagnosis for an inpatient stay; it may be reported as a secondary diagnosis.

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 V72.86 (encounter for blood typing).
