ICD-10 code for sweat gland eccrine disorder

The ICD-10-CM code for sweat gland eccrine disorder is L74.9 (Eccrine sweat disorder, unspecified). The official index lists 3 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on L74.9.

Within L74, choose L74.9 (Eccrine sweat disorder, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: miliaria rubra (L74.0), miliaria crystallina (L74.1), miliaria profunda (L74.2), miliaria, unspecified (L74.3), Anhidrosis (L74.4), focal hyperhidrosis (L74.5) and other eccrine sweat disorders (L74.8).

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 606 (Minor Skin Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5728) and DRG 607 (Minor Skin Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.8772), 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.
