About coding Pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy erb's
The ICD-10-CM code for Pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy erb's is G71.02 (Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy).
Within G71.0 (muscular dystrophy), G71.02 is specifically for Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. Related codes cover unspecified (G71.00), Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy (G71.01), limb girdle muscular dystrophies (G71.03) and other specified muscular dystrophies (G71.09).
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 091 (Other Disorders of Nervous System with MCC, relative weight 1.7046), DRG 092 (Other Disorders of Nervous System with CC, relative weight 1.0239) and DRG 093 (Other Disorders of Nervous System without CC/MCC, relative weight 0.7783), in MDC 01 (Diseases and Disorders of the Nervous 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.
