About coding Proctocolitis allergy
The ICD-10-CM code for Proctocolitis allergy is K52.29 (Other allergic and dietetic gastroenteritis and colitis).
Within K52.2, choose K52.29 (Other allergic and dietetic gastroenteritis and colitis) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: food protein-induced enterocolitis syndrome (K52.21) and food protein-induced enteropathy (K52.22).
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 391 (Esophagitis, Gastroenteritis and Miscellaneous Digestive Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.2392) and DRG 392 (Esophagitis, Gastroenteritis and Miscellaneous Digestive Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.7645), 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.
