About coding Beetle dermatitis blister
The ICD-10-CM code for Beetle dermatitis blister is L24.89 (Irritant contact dermatitis due to other agents).
Within L24.8, choose L24.89 (other agents) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: metals (L24.81).
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 606 (Minor Skin Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5728) and DRG 607 (Minor Skin Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.8772), in MDC 09 (Diseases and Disorders of the Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
