ICD-10 code for proctitis gonococcus

The ICD-10-CM code for proctitis gonococcus is A54.6 (Gonococcal infection of anus and rectum).

Within A54 (gonococcal infection), A54.6 is specifically for gonococcal infection of anus and rectum. Related codes cover of lower genitourinary tract without periurethral or accessory gland abscess (A54.0), of lower genitourinary tract with periurethral and accessory gland abscess (A54.1), gonococcal pelviperitonitis and other gonococcal genitourinary infection (A54.2), of eye (A54.3), of musculoskeletal system (A54.4), gonococcal pharyngitis (A54.5), other gonococcal infections (A54.8) and unspecified (A54.9).

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 393 (Other Digestive System Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 1.5881), DRG 394 (Other Digestive System Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 0.9228) and DRG 395 (Other Digestive System Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6382), in MDC 06 (Diseases and Disorders of the Digestive 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.
