What Medicare edits apply to D63.0?
The Medicare Code Editor screens inpatient claims before they are grouped. These edits name D63.0 directly.
This code describes a manifestation of an underlying disease. The underlying condition must be sequenced before it, so it can never be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
Which MS-DRGs does D63.0 group to?
D63.0 sits in MDC 16 and helps define the logic of 2 MS-DRGs (version 44, FY2027). Which one a stay actually groups to also depends on procedures and secondary diagnoses.
- 811Red Blood Cell Disorders with MCCmedical
- 812Red Blood Cell Disorders without MCCmedical
How is D63.0 listed in the Alphabetic Index?
These are the routes through the Alphabetic Index that lead to D63.0. They show the wording a clinician may have documented, which often differs from the Tabular description.
- Anemia › in › neoplastic disease (essential) (general) (hemoglobin deficiency) (infantile) (primary) (profound)
Excludes1 — never code together
The conditions below can never be reported together with D63.0 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- aplastic anemia due to antineoplastic chemotherapy (D61.1)
Code first
The underlying condition below must be sequenced before D63.0. D63.0 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
- neoplasm (C00-D49)
Excludes2 — not included here
The conditions below are not part of D63.0, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, D63.0 and the excluded code may both be reported.
- anemia due to antineoplastic chemotherapy (D64.81)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 3
The conditions below are not part of D63.0, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, D63.0 and the excluded code may both be reported.
