About coding complicated migraine

The ICD-10-CM code for complicated migraine is G43.109 (Migraine with aura, not intractable, without status migrainosus).

Within G43.10, choose G43.109 (without status migrainosus) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: with status migrainosus (G43.101).

Use an additional code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
