About coding Achroma
The ICD-10-CM code for Achroma is L80 (Vitiligo).
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of L80, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: vitiligo of eyelids (H02.73-) and vitiligo of vulva (N90.89).
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 606 (Minor Skin Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5728), DRG 607 (Minor Skin Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.8772) and DRG 795 (Normal Newborn, relative weight 0.2022), in MDC 09 (Diseases and Disorders of the Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast) 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.
