About coding Vesicourethral orifice stricture

The ICD-10-CM code for Vesicourethral orifice stricture is N32.0 (Bladder-neck obstruction). The official index lists 1 more specific code, so check the documentation for details such as type, cause, site or severity before settling on N32.0.

Within N32 (other disorders of bladder), N32.0 is specifically for Bladder-neck obstruction. Related codes cover Vesicointestinal fistula (N32.1), Vesical fistula, not elsewhere classified (N32.2), diverticulum of bladder (N32.3), other specified disorders of bladder (N32.8) and bladder disorder, unspecified (N32.9).

Don't report N32.0 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: congenital bladder-neck obstruction (Q64.3-).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
