About coding Cry syndrome cat
The ICD-10-CM code for Cry syndrome cat is Q93.4 (Deletion of short arm of chromosome 5).
Within Q93 (Monosomies and deletions from the autosomes, not elsewhere classified), Q93.4 is specifically for deletion of short arm of chromosome 5. Related codes cover whole chromosome monosomy, nonmosaicism (meiotic nondisjunction) (Q93.0), whole chromosome monosomy, mosaicism (mitotic nondisjunction) (Q93.1), chromosome replaced with ring, dicentric or isochromosome (Q93.2), deletion of short arm of chromosome 4 (Q93.3), other deletions of part of a chromosome (Q93.5), deletions with other complex rearrangements (Q93.7), other deletions from the autosomes (Q93.8) and deletion from autosomes, unspecified (Q93.9).
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.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 884 (Organic Disturbances and Intellectual Disability, relative weight 1.6001), in MDC 19 (Mental Diseases and Disorders), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
