About coding Myoglobin nephrosis
The ICD-10-CM code for Myoglobin nephrosis is N10 (Acute pyelonephritis).
Use an additional code (B95-B97), to identify infectious agent.
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 689 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections with MCC, relative weight 1.1415), DRG 690 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections without MCC, relative weight 0.801), DRG 791 (Prematurity with Major Problems, relative weight 4.1075) and DRG 793 (Full Term Neonate with Major Problems, relative weight 4.2195), in MDC 11 (Diseases and Disorders of the Kidney and Urinary Tract) and MDC 15 (Newborns and Other Neonates with Conditions Originating in the Perinatal Period), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
