About coding group delinquency

The ICD-10-CM code for group delinquency is Z72.810 (Child and adolescent antisocial behavior).

Within Z72.81 (antisocial behavior), Z72.810 is specifically for child and adolescent antisocial behavior. Related codes cover adult antisocial behavior (Z72.811).

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 880 (Acute Adjustment Reaction and Psychosocial Dysfunction, relative weight 0.9306), 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.
