About coding chronic vaginitis
The ICD-10-CM code for chronic vaginitis is N76.1 (Subacute and chronic vaginitis).
Within N76 (other inflammation of vagina and vulva), N76.1 is specifically for subacute and chronic vaginitis. Related codes cover acute vaginitis (N76.0), acute vulvitis (N76.2), subacute and chronic vulvitis (N76.3), abscess of vulva (N76.4), ulceration of vagina (N76.5), ulceration of vulva (N76.6) and other specified inflammation of vagina and vulva (N76.8).
Use an additional code (B95-B97), to identify infectious agent.
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
