About coding Nosophobia
The ICD-10-CM code for Nosophobia is F45.22 (Body dysmorphic disorder).
Within F45.2 (hypochondriacal disorders), F45.22 is specifically for body dysmorphic disorder. Related codes cover hypochondriacal disorder, unspecified (F45.20), Hypochondriasis (F45.21) and other hypochondriacal disorders (F45.29).
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 882 (Neuroses Except Depressive, relative weight 0.9952), in MDC 19 (Mental 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.
