About coding Accelerated atrioventricular conduction

The ICD-10-CM code for Accelerated atrioventricular conduction is I45.6 (Pre-excitation syndrome).

Within I45 (other conduction disorders), I45.6 is specifically for Pre-excitation syndrome. Related codes cover right fascicular block (I45.0), other and unspecified right bundle-branch block (I45.1), Bifascicular block (I45.2), Trifascicular block (I45.3), nonspecific intraventricular block (I45.4), other specified heart block (I45.5), other specified conduction disorders (I45.8) and conduction disorder, unspecified (I45.9).

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 308 (Cardiac Arrhythmia and Conduction Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.1806), DRG 309 (Cardiac Arrhythmia and Conduction Disorders with CC, relative weight 0.7316), DRG 310 (Cardiac Arrhythmia and Conduction Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.568), DRG 791 (Prematurity with Major Problems, relative weight 4.1075) and DRG 793 (Full Term Neonate with Major Problems, relative weight 4.2195), in MDC 05 (Diseases and Disorders of the Circulatory System) and 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.
