About coding vulvodynia
The ICD-10-CM code for vulvodynia is N94.819 (Vulvodynia, unspecified). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on N94.819.
Within N94.81, choose N94.819 (unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: vulvar vestibulitis (N94.810) and other vulvodynia (N94.818).
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 742 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.8456), DRG 743 (Uterine and Adnexa Procedures for Non-Malignancy without CC/MCC, relative weight 1.2974), DRG 760 (Menstrual and Other Female Reproductive System Disorders with CC/MCC, relative weight 1.0129) and DRG 761 (Menstrual and Other Female Reproductive System Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7041), in MDC 13 (Diseases and Disorders of the Female Reproductive System), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
