D82.0 ICD-10-CM Code: Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome

Coding instructions

Official Tabular Instructional Notes: the inclusion, exclusion and sequencing notes published for D82.0 in the official ICD-10-CM tabular list, quoted as published.

Source: CMS/CDC — ICD-10-CM Tabular ListRelease: FY2026Effective: October 1, 2025

Notes without a marker are published on D82.0 itself; “inherited from” names the category or block whose note applies here.

This page already reflects the FY2027 tabular note taking effect October 1, 2026.

Coder workflow for D82.0

MedCoder structured workflow — derived from this code’s own official record

Before you code D82.0

1. Check the Excludes1 note: if the documentation supports a condition named there, do not simply proceed with D82.0. Excludes1 conditions are not reported together with this code unless the record shows they are unrelated (Guidelines I.A.12.a).

   See the official tabular notes

Choose the right path

1. Does the documentation support a condition named in D82.0’s Excludes1 note?
   Yes → Do not simply proceed: review the excluded code. Both are reported only when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated.
   No → Continue.

   ReviewM35.9, D71

Consider D82.0. Then confirm the code is valid for the date of service in the Verify section.

Documentation check

The provider’s diagnostic statement

Codes are assigned from the provider’s documented diagnosis, not from clinical criteria, test values or a medication list (Guidelines I.A.19).

The associated condition or complication

Whether the associated condition the title names is documented; the “with” convention presumes some links, and a provider statement that the conditions are unrelated defeats it (Guidelines I.A.15).

Official instructions as workflow

• Excludes1 — check before selecting D82.0(3 notes)

  Coding workflow: If the documentation supports a condition named in this note, do not simply proceed with D82.0: the two are not reported together. The one exception is when the record shows the two conditions are unrelated to each other.

  CompareM35.9, D71

  See the official tabular notes · Guidelines I.A.12.a

• Excludes2 — not part of D82.0(1 note)

  Coding workflow: The conditions named in this note are not included in D82.0. When the record documents both, both may be reported; the note is a boundary, not a prohibition.

Coding decision scenarios

Pattern scenarios for this code’s structure — decision rules, not clinical cases

Every row is derived from this code’s own record — its title, tabular notes, 7th-character family and same-category siblings — with fixed MedCoder wording; nothing is inferred about a patient. The official notes and guideline text are in the sections each row links to, and they control.

Indexed Clinical Terms (8)

Official source data — entries quoted as published, in the Index’s own lookup phrasing

Clinical term phrases from the official ICD-10-CM Index to Diseases and Injuries that map to this code. These are alphabetic-index entries shown as the Index writes them — lookup phrasing, not necessarily the wording of a final diagnosis.

• Aldrich (-Wiskott) syndrome (eczema-thrombocytopenia)
• Deficiency, deficient, immunity, cell-mediated, with thrombocytopenia and eczema
• Immunodeficiency, with, thrombocytopenia and eczema
• Syndrome, Aldrich (-Wiskott)
• Syndrome, eczema-thrombocytopenia
• Syndrome, familial eczema-thrombocytopenia (Wiskott-Aldrich)
• Syndrome, Wiskott-Aldrich
• Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome

Official Coding Guidelines

No excerpt in the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines names this code specifically. Its chapter carries only this chapter-wide note:

Don’t confuse D82.0 with…

MedCoder analysis — pairs from this code’s official notes, distinctions written by MedCoder

The codes most likely to be picked instead of D82.0 — named in its own official notes, or sharing its laterality or encounter family — with what separates them and which documentation moves the case. Each links to the full comparison.

• M35.9— Excludes1 conflict (Excludes1 — generally not reported together)

  Not coded here — the tabular list excludes this pair for the same encounter.

  Not reported together with this code, except where the two conditions are documented as unrelated.

  What moves you there: Documentation of autoimmune disease (systemic) NOS moves the case to M35.9; the two are not reported together unless documented as unrelated.

  Full comparison: D82.0 vs M35.9 →

• D71— Excludes1 conflict (Excludes1 — generally not reported together)

  Not coded here — the tabular list excludes this pair for the same encounter.

  Not reported together with this code, except where the two conditions are documented as unrelated.

  What moves you there: Documentation of functional disorders of polymorphonuclear neutrophils moves the case to D71; the two are not reported together unless documented as unrelated.

  Full comparison: D82.0 vs D71 →

• D82.9— Specificity relationship (Review)

  Overlapping diagnoses in the same category.

  Overlapping codes in the same category — the documentation decides which is the more specific fit.

  What moves you there: A record that documents no more than “Immunodeficiency associated with major defect, unspecified” takes D82.9; specificity in the record moves it back here.

  Full comparison: D82.0 vs D82.9 →

• B20— Excludes2 relationship (Informational)

  Distinct conditions — both may be reported.

  A distinct condition — both may be reported when both are documented.

  What moves you there: Documentation of human immunodeficiency virus [HIV] disease adds B20; it is not part of this code and both may be reported when both are documented.

  Full comparison: D82.0 vs B20 →

Relationships are read from this code's own official notes, its laterality siblings and its encounter family; the wording of each distinction is MedCoder editorial, and the documentation named in each “what moves you there” line is the official note phrase or sibling title itself.

Relationships & Classification

MedCoder structured relationships — computed from published CMS and AHRQ datasets

Other codes that name D82.0 or its code family, from the CMS ICD-10-CM tabular instructional notes. Tabular-note edges are stored at the code family level that carries each note.

Referenced by 3 Excludes1 notes: D69.4 — Other primary thrombocytopenia, D72 — Other disorders of white blood cells (via D82.-), D84.81 — Immunodeficiency due to conditions classified elsewhere (via D82.-).

These codes’ tabular lists mark this diagnosis as mutually exclusive — not reported together unless the conditions are documented as unrelated.

MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)

Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.

FY2026 MS-DRG: CC — Complication or Comorbidity. Reported as a secondary diagnosis, this code raises the stay's MS-DRG severity tier — except when the principal diagnosis is one of 44 clinically related codes on its CMS exclusion list.

Named in the grouper logic of 3 MS-DRGs: DRG 808 (MDC 16), DRG 809 (MDC 16), DRG 810 (MDC 16).

From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual (Appendices B and C). Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
