About coding Feeble-minded
The ICD-10-CM code for Feeble-minded is F70 (Mild intellectual disabilities).
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 884 (Organic Disturbances and Intellectual Disability, relative weight 1.6001), in MDC 19 (Mental Diseases and Disorders), 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 has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
