About coding Aluminosis
The ICD-10-CM code for Aluminosis is J63.0 (Aluminosis (of lung)).
Within J63 (pneumoconiosis due to other inorganic dusts), J63.0 is specifically for Aluminosis (of lung). Related codes cover Bauxite fibrosis (of lung) (J63.1), Berylliosis (J63.2), Graphite fibrosis (of lung) (J63.3), Siderosis (J63.4), Stannosis (J63.5) and pneumoconiosis due to other specified inorganic dusts (J63.6).
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 196 (Interstitial Lung Disease with MCC, relative weight 1.8336), DRG 197 (Interstitial Lung Disease with CC, relative weight 0.9492) and DRG 198 (Interstitial Lung Disease without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7259), in MDC 04 (Diseases and Disorders of the Respiratory 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.
