E11.37X2 ICD-10-CM Code: Type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic macular edema, resolved following treatment, left eye

Billing Status: YES. This is a valid, specific, and billable ICD-10-CM reference.

Inpatient Payment Groups (MS-DRG)

MS-DRGs this diagnosis helps define, as principal or secondary, per the CMS ICD-10-CM/PCS MS-DRG Definitions Manual v43.0, Appendix B.

  • MS-DRG 008 — SIMULTANEOUS PANCREAS AND KIDNEY TRANSPLANT (MDC PRE)
  • MS-DRG 010 — PANCREAS TRANSPLANT (MDC PRE)
  • MS-DRG 019 — SIMULTANEOUS PANCREAS AND KIDNEY TRANSPLANT WITH HEMODIALYSIS (MDC PRE)
  • MS-DRG 124 — OTHER DISORDERS OF THE EYE WITH MCC OR THROMBOLYTIC AGENT (MDC 02)
  • MS-DRG 125 — OTHER DISORDERS OF THE EYE WITHOUT MCC (MDC 02)

A diagnosis appearing in a group's logic does not by itself determine the DRG assigned to a stay; the grouper uses the full claim.

Risk Adjustment (CMS-HCC)

Payment categories this diagnosis maps to under CMS-HCC V28, payment year 2026.

  • HCC 37 — Diabetes with Chronic Complications (supersedes HCC 38)

Other models: CMS-HCC V22 HCC 18 · RxHCC V08 HCC 30

Risk scores depend on the enrollee's full accepted diagnosis set and segment; a category mapping alone does not determine payment.

Official Registry Overview & Definition

Type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic macular edema, resolved following treatment, left eye is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code (E11.372).

Official Tabular Instructional Notes

Sequencing, inclusion, and exclusion notes published for E11.37X2 in the official ICD-10-CM tabular list.

Includes

Conditions the official ICD-10-CM tabular list includes under this code.

  • diabetes (mellitus) due to insulin secretory defect
  • diabetes NOS
  • insulin resistant diabetes (mellitus)

Excludes1 — Not Coded Here

Conditions generally not reported together with this code (Excludes1) -- an error unless the two conditions are documented as unrelated to each other (ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).

Use Additional Code

Supplementary codes the tabular list directs you to add.

  • Use additional code to identify control using:
  • injectable non-insulin antidiabetic drugs (Z79.85)
  • insulin (Z79.4)
  • oral antidiabetic drugs (Z79.84)
  • oral hypoglycemic drugs (Z79.84)
