About coding Kyasanur Forest disease
The ICD-10-CM code for Kyasanur Forest disease is A98.2 (Kyasanur Forest disease).
Within A98 (other viral hemorrhagic fevers, not elsewhere classified), A98.2 is specifically for Kyasanur Forest disease. Related codes cover Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (A98.0), Omsk hemorrhagic fever (A98.1), Marburg virus disease (A98.3), Ebola virus disease (A98.4), hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (A98.5) and other specified viral hemorrhagic fevers (A98.8).
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.
