About coding jaw granuloma
The ICD-10-CM code for jaw granuloma is M27.1 (Giant cell granuloma, central). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on M27.1.
Within M27 (other diseases of jaws), M27.1 is specifically for giant cell granuloma, central. Related codes cover developmental disorders of jaws (M27.0), inflammatory conditions of jaws (M27.2), alveolitis of jaws (M27.3), other and unspecified cysts of jaw (M27.4), periradicular pathology associated with previous endodontic treatment (M27.5), endosseous dental implant failure (M27.6), other specified diseases of jaws (M27.8) and disease of jaws, unspecified (M27.9).
Don't report M27.1 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: peripheral giant cell granuloma (K06.8).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
