About coding neuroleptic induced acute dystonia
The ICD-10-CM code for neuroleptic induced acute dystonia is G24.02 (Drug induced acute dystonia).
Within G24.0 (drug induced dystonia), G24.02 is specifically for drug induced acute dystonia. Related codes cover drug induced subacute dyskinesia (G24.01) and other drug induced dystonia (G24.09).
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 091 (Other Disorders of Nervous System with MCC, relative weight 1.7046), DRG 092 (Other Disorders of Nervous System with CC, relative weight 1.0239) and DRG 093 (Other Disorders of Nervous System without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7783), in MDC 01 (Diseases and Disorders of the Nervous System), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
