About coding ruptured hodgson's
The ICD-10-CM code for ruptured hodgson's is I71.10 (Thoracic aortic aneurysm, ruptured, unspecified).
Within I71.1, choose I71.10 (unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: aneurysm of the ascending aorta, ruptured (I71.11), aneurysm of the aortic arch, ruptured (I71.12) and aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta, ruptured (I71.13).
Code first , if applicable: syphilitic aortic aneurysm (A52.01) and traumatic aortic aneurysm (S25.09, S35.09).
As a secondary diagnosis it is an MCC (major complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the highest-paying "with MCC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.
