About coding localized adenopathy
The ICD-10-CM code for localized adenopathy is R59.0 (Localized enlarged lymph nodes).
Within R59 (enlarged lymph nodes), R59.0 is specifically for localized enlarged lymph nodes. Related codes cover generalized enlarged lymph nodes (R59.1) and unspecified (R59.9).
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 814 (Reticuloendothelial and Immunity Disorders with MCC, relative weight 2.0729), DRG 815 (Reticuloendothelial and Immunity Disorders with CC, relative weight 1.0444) and DRG 816 (Reticuloendothelial and Immunity Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7381), in MDC 16 (Diseases and Disorders of the Blood and Blood Forming Organs and Immunological 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.
