About coding obliterans general thromboangiitis
The ICD-10-CM code for obliterans general thromboangiitis is I73.1 (Thromboangiitis obliterans [Buerger's disease]). The official index lists 3 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on I73.1.
Within I73 (other peripheral vascular diseases), I73.1 is specifically for Thromboangiitis obliterans [Buerger's disease]. Related codes cover Raynaud's syndrome (I73.0), other specified peripheral vascular diseases (I73.8) and peripheral vascular disease, unspecified (I73.9).
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 299 (Peripheral Vascular Disorders with MCC, relative weight 1.5842), DRG 300 (Peripheral Vascular Disorders with CC, relative weight 1.0464) and DRG 301 (Peripheral Vascular Disorders without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7133), in MDC 05 (Diseases and Disorders of the Circulatory System), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
