About coding blood pressure test

The ICD-10-CM code for blood pressure test is Z01.30 (Encounter for examination of blood pressure without abnormal findings).

Within Z01.3, choose Z01.30 (without abnormal findings) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: with abnormal findings (Z01.31).

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 951 (Other Factors Influencing Health Status, relative weight 0.5577), in MDC 23 (Factors Influencing Health Status and Other Contacts with Health Services), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
