ICD-10 code for Sclerema

The ICD-10-CM code for Sclerema is P83.0 (Sclerema neonatorum).

Within P83 (other conditions of integument specific to newborn), P83.0 is specifically for Sclerema neonatorum. Related codes cover neonatal erythema toxicum (P83.1), hydrops fetalis not due to hemolytic disease (P83.2), other and unspecified edema specific to newborn (P83.3), breast engorgement of newborn (P83.4), congenital hydrocele (P83.5), umbilical polyp of newborn (P83.6), other specified conditions of integument specific to newborn (P83.8) and condition of the integument specific to newborn, unspecified (P83.9).

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 794 (Neonate with Other Significant Problems, relative weight 1.4935), in MDC 15 (Newborns and Other Neonates with Conditions Originating in the Perinatal Period), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
