About coding Cervicovaginal adhesions
The ICD-10-CM code for Cervicovaginal adhesions is N88.1 (Old laceration of cervix uteri). The official index lists 3 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on N88.1.
Within N88 (other noninflammatory disorders of cervix uteri), N88.1 is specifically for old laceration of cervix uteri. Related codes cover leukoplakia of cervix uteri (N88.0), stricture and stenosis of cervix uteri (N88.2), incompetence of cervix uteri (N88.3), hypertrophic elongation of cervix uteri (N88.4), other specified noninflammatory disorders of cervix uteri (N88.8) and noninflammatory disorder of cervix uteri, unspecified (N88.9).
Don't report N88.1 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: current obstetric trauma (O71.3).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
