About coding Vesical tenesmus
The ICD-10-CM code for Vesical tenesmus is R30.1 (Vesical tenesmus).
Within R30 (pain associated with micturition), R30.1 is specifically for Vesical tenesmus. Related codes cover dysuria (R30.0) and Painful micturition, unspecified (R30.9).
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 695 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Signs and Symptoms with MCC, relative weight 1.1139) and DRG 696 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Signs and Symptoms without MCC, relative weight 0.6679), in MDC 11 (Diseases and Disorders of the Kidney and Urinary Tract), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
