Care settings
How CMS programs treat this code. These are CMS claim edits and list entries, not coverage or eligibility rules.
Hospice: not accepted as primary
Not accepted as the principal diagnosis on a hospice claim (bill types 081x and 082x). The Integrated OCE returns an edit for this code.
Reason: Manifestation code. Report the underlying condition first (see the Code first note).
Hospital CC
Counts as a complication or comorbidity (CC) when reported as a secondary diagnosis on an inpatient claim. It does not count when the principal diagnosis is one of the 31 codes in its exclusion list. Some MS-DRGs also ignore a CC or MCC that defines the DRG.
