ICD-10 code for glycoprotein metabolism disorder

The ICD-10-CM code for glycoprotein metabolism disorder is E77.9 (Disorder of glycoprotein metabolism, 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 E77.9.

Within E77, choose E77.9 (Disorder of glycoprotein metabolism, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: defects in post-translational modification of lysosomal enzymes (E77.0), defects in glycoprotein degradation (E77.1) and other disorders of glycoprotein metabolism (E77.8).

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 642 (Inborn and Other Disorders of Metabolism, relative weight 1.3219), in MDC 10 (Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic 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.
