About QA0.0151

QA0.0151 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for FOXG1 syndrome. It belongs to category QA0 (neurodevelopmental disorders related to specific genetic pathogenic variants), block QA0-QA1 (genetic disorders, not elsewhere classified) and chapter 17 (congenital malformations, deformations, chromosomal abnormalities, and genetic disorders). It is billable, so it can be reported on its own for dates of service from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.

Within QA0.015 (neurodevelopmental disorders, related to genes associated with transcription and gene expression), QA0.0151 is specifically for FOXG1 syndrome. Related codes cover neurodevelopmental disorder, related to other genes associated with transcription and gene expression (QA0.0159).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 564 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue Diagnoses with MCC, relative weight 1.4908), DRG 565 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue Diagnoses with CC, relative weight 0.9783) and DRG 566 (Other Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue Diagnoses without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7378), in MDC 08 (Diseases and Disorders of the Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue), 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 is exempt from present-on-admission (POA) reporting, so no POA indicator is required.

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