About coding McArdle disease
The ICD-10-CM code for McArdle disease is E74.04 (McArdle disease).
Within E74.0 (glycogen storage disease), E74.04 is specifically for McArdle disease. Related codes cover unspecified (E74.00), von Gierke disease (E74.01), Pompe disease (E74.02), Cori disease (E74.03), Lysosome-associated membrane protein 2 [LAMP2] deficiency (E74.05) and other glycogen storage disease (E74.09).
As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 642 (Inborn and Other Disorders of Metabolism, relative weight 1.3219), in MDC 10 (Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic 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.
