What Medicare edits apply to H82.3?
The Medicare Code Editor screens inpatient claims before they are grouped. These edits name H82.3 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 H82.3 group to?
H82.3 sits in MDC 03 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.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from H82
The conditions below can never be reported together with H82.3 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- epidemic vertigo (A88.1)
Code first — inherited from H82
The underlying condition below must be sequenced before H82.3. H82.3 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
- underlying disease

- complications of pregnancy, childbirth and the puerperium (O00-O9A)
- congenital malformations, deformations and chromosomal abnormalities (Q00-Q99)
- endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases (E00-E88)

How long has H82.3 existed?
H82.3 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.
