About coding Guttata parapsoriasis

The ICD-10-CM code for Guttata parapsoriasis is L41.1 (Pityriasis lichenoides chronica).

Within L41 (parapsoriasis), L41.1 is specifically for pityriasis lichenoides chronica. Related codes cover pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (L41.0), small plaque parapsoriasis (L41.3), large plaque parapsoriasis (L41.4), Retiform parapsoriasis (L41.5), other parapsoriasis (L41.8) and unspecified (L41.9).

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 595 (Major Skin Disorders with MCC, relative weight 2.0239) and DRG 596 (Major Skin Disorders without MCC, relative weight 1.1071), in MDC 09 (Diseases and Disorders of the Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
