About coding selenium deficiency sequelae
The ICD-10-CM code for selenium deficiency sequelae is E64.8 (Sequelae of other nutritional deficiencies).
Within E64, choose E64.8 (other nutritional deficiencies) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: protein-calorie malnutrition (E64.0), vitamin A deficiency (E64.1), vitamin C deficiency (E64.2), rickets (E64.3) and unspecified nutritional deficiency (E64.9).
Code first: condition resulting from (sequela) of malnutrition and other nutritional deficiencies.
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
