About coding alcoholic polyneuritis
The ICD-10-CM code for alcoholic polyneuritis is G62.1 (Alcoholic polyneuropathy).
Within G62 (other and unspecified polyneuropathies), G62.1 is specifically for alcoholic polyneuropathy. Related codes cover drug-induced polyneuropathy (G62.0), polyneuropathy due to other toxic agents (G62.2), other specified polyneuropathies (G62.8) and polyneuropathy, unspecified (G62.9).
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 073 (Cranial and Peripheral Nerve Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5779) and DRG 074 (Cranial and Peripheral Nerve Disorders without MCC, relative weight 1.0173), in MDC 01 (Diseases and Disorders of the Nervous 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.
