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 917 — POISONING AND TOXIC EFFECTS OF DRUGS WITH MCC (MDC 21)
  • MS-DRG 918 — POISONING AND TOXIC EFFECTS OF DRUGS WITHOUT MCC (MDC 21)

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 155 — Major Depression, Moderate or Severe, without Psychosis

Other models: CMS-HCC V22 HCC 58 · RxHCC V08 HCC 132
