About coding Syngamiasis
The ICD-10-CM code for Syngamiasis is B83.3 (Syngamiasis).
Within B83 (other helminthiases), B83.3 is specifically for Syngamiasis. Related codes cover visceral larva migrans (B83.0), Gnathostomiasis (B83.1), angiostrongyliasis due to Parastrongylus cantonensis (B83.2), internal hirudiniasis (B83.4), other specified helminthiases (B83.8) and helminthiasis, unspecified (B83.9).
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 867 (Other Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 2.1859), DRG 868 (Other Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 1.0235) and DRG 869 (Other Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6787), in MDC 18 (Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, Systemic or Unspecified Sites), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
