About I27.848

I27.848 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other Fontan-associated condition. It belongs to category I27 (other pulmonary heart diseases), block I26-I28 (pulmonary heart disease and diseases of pulmonary circulation) and chapter 9 (diseases of the circulatory system). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within I27.84, choose I27.848 (Other Fontan-associated condition) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: Fontan-associated liver disease [FALD] (I27.840), Fontan-associated lymphatic dysfunction (I27.841) and unspecified (I27.849).

Use an additional code to specify the Fontan associated condition.

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 314 (Other Circulatory System Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 2.0873), DRG 315 (Other Circulatory System Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 0.9508) and DRG 316 (Other Circulatory System Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6677), in MDC 05 (Diseases and Disorders of the Circulatory 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.

It was added in FY2026, effective October 1, 2025.
