About coding adenovirus enteritis
The ICD-10-CM code for adenovirus enteritis is A08.2 (Adenoviral enteritis).
Within A08 (viral and other specified intestinal infections), A08.2 is specifically for adenoviral enteritis. Related codes cover Rotaviral enteritis (A08.0), acute gastroenteropathy due to Norwalk agent and other small round viruses (A08.1), other viral enteritis (A08.3), viral intestinal infection, unspecified (A08.4) and other specified intestinal infections (A08.8).
As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
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.
