About coding Arteriolar disease
The ICD-10-CM code for Arteriolar disease is I77.9 (Disorder of arteries and arterioles, unspecified).
Within I77, choose I77.9 (Disorder of arteries and arterioles, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: arteriovenous fistula, acquired (I77.0), stricture of artery (I77.1), rupture of artery (I77.2), arterial fibromuscular dysplasia (I77.3), celiac artery compression syndrome (I77.4), necrosis of artery (I77.5), arteritis, unspecified (I77.6), other arterial dissection (I77.7) and 1 more.
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 299 (Peripheral Vascular Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5842), DRG 300 (Peripheral Vascular Disorders with CC, relative weight 1.0464) and DRG 301 (Peripheral Vascular Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7133), 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.
