E13.37X3 ICD-10-CM Code: Other specified diabetes mellitus with diabetic macular edema, resolved following treatment, bilateral
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.
