ICD-10 code for Kaposi's varicelliform eruption

The ICD-10-CM code for Kaposi's varicelliform eruption is B00.0 (Eczema herpeticum).

Within B00 (herpesviral [herpes simplex] infections), B00.0 is specifically for eczema herpeticum. Related codes cover herpesviral vesicular dermatitis (B00.1), herpesviral gingivostomatitis and pharyngotonsillitis (B00.2), herpesviral meningitis (B00.3), herpesviral encephalitis (B00.4), herpesviral ocular disease (B00.5), disseminated herpesviral disease (B00.7), other forms of herpesviral infections (B00.8) and herpesviral infection, unspecified (B00.9).

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 606 (Minor Skin Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5728), DRG 607 (Minor Skin Disorders without MCC, relative weight 0.8772), DRG 791 (Prematurity with Major Problems, relative weight 4.1075), DRG 793 (Full Term Neonate with Major Problems, relative weight 4.2195), DRG 974 (HIV with Major Related Condition with MCC, relative weight 3.0506), DRG 975 (HIV with Major Related Condition with CC, relative weight 1.3252) and 1 more, in MDC 09 (Diseases and Disorders of the Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast), MDC 15 (Newborns and Other Neonates with Conditions Originating in the Perinatal Period) and MDC 25 (Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infections), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
