About coding sexual desire decrease
The ICD-10-CM code for sexual desire decrease is R68.82 (Decreased libido).
Within R68.8 (other general symptoms and signs), R68.82 is specifically for decreased libido. Related codes cover early satiety (R68.81), Chills (without fever) (R68.83), jaw pain (R68.84) and other general symptoms and signs (R68.89).
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 951 (Other Factors Influencing Health Status, relative weight 0.5577), in MDC 23 (Factors Influencing Health Status and Other Contacts with Health Services), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
