About coding developmental amusia
The ICD-10-CM code for developmental amusia is F80.89 (Other developmental disorders of speech and language).
Within F80.8, choose F80.89 (Other developmental disorders of speech and language) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: childhood onset fluency disorder (F80.81) and social pragmatic communication disorder (F80.82).
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 886 (Behavioral and Developmental Disorders, relative weight 1.8678), 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.
