G61.89 ICD-10-CM Code: Other inflammatory polyneuropathies

G61.89 is the authoritative medical code for Other inflammatory polyneuropathies. This classification is used in medical billing and clinical recording to specify the clinical criteria for other inflammatory polyneuropathies (ICD-10-CM G61.89), ensuring healthcare documentation aligns with current federal coding standards.

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 (FY2026), Appendix B.

  • MS-DRG 073 — CRANIAL AND PERIPHERAL NERVE DISORDERS WITH MCC (MDC 01)
  • MS-DRG 074 — CRANIAL AND PERIPHERAL NERVE DISORDERS WITHOUT MCC (MDC 01)

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.

Code Set: Valid FY2026 and FY2027. FY2026 took effect October 1, 2025.
