About coding Junin hemorrhagic fever
The ICD-10-CM code for Junin hemorrhagic fever is A96.0 (Junin hemorrhagic fever).
Within A96 (arenaviral hemorrhagic fever), A96.0 is specifically for Junin hemorrhagic fever. Related codes cover Machupo hemorrhagic fever (A96.1), Lassa fever (A96.2), other arenaviral hemorrhagic fevers (A96.8) and unspecified (A96.9).
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 865 (Viral Illness with MCC, relative weight 1.3485) and DRG 866 (Viral Illness without MCC, relative weight 0.8692), in MDC 18 (Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, Systemic or Unspecified Sites), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
