Which MS-DRGs does D62 group to?
D62 sits in MDC 15 and helps define the logic of 1 MS-DRG (version 44, FY2027). Which one a stay actually groups to also depends on procedures and secondary diagnoses.
- 791Prematurity with Major Problemsmedical
As a secondary diagnosis, D62 is a complication or comorbidity (CC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.

- Posthemorrhagic anemia › acute (chronic)
- Anemia › blood loss › acute (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
- Anemia › hemorrhagic › acute (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
- Anemia › posthemorrhagic › acute (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
- Anemia › postoperative › due toblood loss (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
- Hemorrhage, hemorrhagic › anemia › acute (concealed)
- Anemia › due to › blood loss › acute (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
- Anemia › due to › hemorrhage › acute (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
- Anemia › due to › loss of blood › acute (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
- Anemia › hypochromic › due to blood loss › acute (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)

Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with D62 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 3
The conditions below are not part of D62, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, D62 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- autoimmune disease (systemic) NOS (M35.9)
- certain conditions originating in the perinatal period (P00-P96)
- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
- congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
- endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88)
- human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease (B20)
- injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes (S00-T88)
- neoplasms (C00-D49)
- symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified (R00-R94)
How long has D62 existed?
D62 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.
Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
Which codes are confused with D62?
ICD-10-CM declares these codes mutually exclusive with D62 — exactly one of each pair can be correct for a given encounter.
