About coding radon contact
The ICD-10-CM code for radon contact is Z77.123 (Contact with and (suspected) exposure to radon and other naturally occurring radiation).
Within Z77.12, choose Z77.123 (radon and other naturally occurring radiation) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: mold (toxic) (Z77.120), harmful algae and algae toxins (Z77.121), noise (Z77.122) and other hazards in the physical environment (Z77.128).
The conditions in its Excludes2 note aren't part of Z77.123, but may be coded alongside it if the patient has both: radiation exposure as the cause of a confirmed condition (W88-W90, X39.0-) and radiation sickness NOS (T66).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
