About coding Rectalgia
The ICD-10-CM code for Rectalgia is K62.89 (Other specified diseases of anus and rectum).
Within K62.8, choose K62.89 (Other specified diseases of anus and rectum) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: anal sphincter tear (healed) (nontraumatic) (old) (K62.81) and dysplasia of anus (K62.82).
Use an additional code for any associated fecal incontinence (R15.-).
It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
