About coding Rupia
The ICD-10-CM code for Rupia is A51.39 (Other secondary syphilis of skin). The official index lists 2 more specific codes, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on A51.39.
Within A51.3, choose A51.39 (Other secondary syphilis of skin) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: Condyloma latum (A51.31) and syphilitic alopecia (A51.32).
Don't report A51.39 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: late syphilitic leukoderma (A52.79).
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.
