About coding glycosuria findings
The ICD-10-CM code for glycosuria findings is R81 (Glycosuria).
Don't report R81 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: renal glycosuria (E74.818).
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 637 (Diabetes with MCC, relative weight 1.4129), DRG 638 (Diabetes with CC, relative weight 0.9019) and DRG 639 (Diabetes without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.6376), 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.
Don't confuse with (Excludes1 for R81)
- renal glycosuria (E74.818)
