About coding Microdrepanocytosis anemia

The ICD-10-CM code for Microdrepanocytosis anemia is D57.40 (Sickle-cell thalassemia without crisis).

Within D57.4, choose D57.40 (without crisis) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: unspecified, with crisis (D57.41), beta zero without crisis (D57.42), beta zero with crisis (D57.43), beta plus without crisis (D57.44) and beta plus with crisis (D57.45).

Use an additional code for any associated fever (R50.81).

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