About coding Gastrorrhagia
The ICD-10-CM code for Gastrorrhagia is K92.2 (Gastrointestinal hemorrhage, unspecified). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on K92.2.
Within K92, choose K92.2 (Gastrointestinal hemorrhage, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: hematemesis (K92.0), melena (K92.1), other specified diseases of the digestive system (K92.8) and disease of digestive system, unspecified (K92.9).
Don't report K92.2 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: acute hemorrhagic gastritis (K29.01), hemorrhage of anus and rectum (K62.5), angiodysplasia of stomach with hemorrhage (K31.811), diverticular disease with hemorrhage (K57.-) and 2 more.
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.
