About coding bladder cord

The ICD-10-CM code for bladder cord is G95.89 (Other specified diseases of spinal cord). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on G95.89.

Within G95.8, choose G95.89 (Other specified diseases of spinal cord) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: Conus medullaris syndrome (G95.81).

Don't report G95.89 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: myelopathy NOS (G95.9).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
