About coding Annuloaortic ectasia

The ICD-10-CM code for Annuloaortic ectasia is I35.8 (Other nonrheumatic aortic valve disorders).

Within I35, choose I35.8 (Other nonrheumatic aortic valve disorders) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: nonrheumatic aortic (valve) stenosis (I35.0), nonrheumatic aortic (valve) insufficiency (I35.1), nonrheumatic aortic (valve) stenosis with insufficiency (I35.2) and nonrheumatic aortic valve disorder, unspecified (I35.9).

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 306 (Cardiac Congenital and Valvular Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.546) and DRG 307 (Cardiac Congenital and Valvular Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.9148), in MDC 05 (Diseases and Disorders of the Circulatory 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.
