About coding small plaque parapsoriasis
The ICD-10-CM code for small plaque parapsoriasis is L41.3 (Small plaque parapsoriasis).
Within L41 (parapsoriasis), L41.3 is specifically for small plaque parapsoriasis. Related codes cover pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (L41.0), pityriasis lichenoides chronica (L41.1), large plaque parapsoriasis (L41.4), Retiform parapsoriasis (L41.5), other parapsoriasis (L41.8) and unspecified (L41.9).
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 595 (Major Skin Disorders with MCC, relative weight 2.0239) and DRG 596 (Major Skin Disorders without MCC, relative weight 1.1071), in MDC 09 (Diseases and Disorders of the Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
