About coding Bang's disease

The ICD-10-CM code for Bang's disease is A23.1 (Brucellosis due to Brucella abortus).

Within A23 (brucellosis), A23.1 is specifically for brucellosis due to Brucella abortus. Related codes cover due to Brucella melitensis (A23.0), due to Brucella suis (A23.2), due to Brucella canis (A23.3), other brucellosis (A23.8) and unspecified (A23.9).

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 867 (Other Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 2.1859), DRG 868 (Other Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 1.0235) and DRG 869 (Other Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6787), in MDC 18 (Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, Systemic or Unspecified Sites), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
