About coding intestinal bypass status

The ICD-10-CM code for intestinal bypass status is Z98.0 (Intestinal bypass and anastomosis status).

Within Z98 (other postprocedural states), Z98.0 is specifically for intestinal bypass and anastomosis status. Related codes cover arthrodesis status (Z98.1), presence of cerebrospinal fluid drainage device (Z98.2), post therapeutic collapse of lung status (Z98.3), cataract extraction status (Z98.4), sterilization status (Z98.5), angioplasty status (Z98.6) and other specified postprocedural states (Z98.8).

The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of Z98.0, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: bariatric surgery status (Z98.84), gastric bypass status (Z98.84) and obesity surgery status (Z98.84).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
