Clinical Information

• Hypertelorism

  abnormal increase in the interorbital distance due to overdevelopment of the lesser wings of the sphenoid.

• Arachnodactyly

  an abnormal bone development that is characterized by extra long and slender hands and fingers, such that the clenched thumb extends beyond the ulnar side of the hand. arachnodactyly can include feet and toes. arachnodactyly has been associated with several gene mutations and syndromes.

• Thrombocythemia, Essential

  a clinical syndrome characterized by repeated spontaneous hemorrhages and a remarkable increase in the number of circulating platelets.

• Thrombocytosis

  increased numbers of platelets in the peripheral blood. (dorland, 27th ed)

• Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

  diaphragmatic hernia that is present at birth.

• Akinesia

  lack of movement.

• Fetal Akinesia Deformation Sequence|FADS|Pena-Shokeir syndrome, Type 1

  a condition characterized by fetal akinesia and intrauterine growth restriction, that may be associated with mutation(s) in the rapsn or dok7 genes, encoding 43 kda receptor-associated protein of the synapse and protein dok-7, respectively.

• Feingold Syndrome

  a rare autosomal dominant syndrome caused by mutations in the mycn oncogene. it is characterized by microcephaly, limb abnormalities, esophageal and/or duodenal atresia.

• Fryns Syndrome

  a rare syndrome inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern. it is characterized by the presence of diaphragmatic defects, distinctive facial features (hypertelorism, low-set ears, flat nasal bridge, and micrognathia), distal digital hypoplasia, lung hypoplasia, and brain, gastrointestinal, and cardiovascular malformations.

Q74.9 is grouped with Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping

Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a classification system used to group together diagnosis codes for the purpose of reimbursement and healthcare management. DRGs are used to standardize the way hospitals and other providers are paid for inpatient services. In this system patients are grouped together based on their principal diagnosis in areas referred to as Major Diagnostic Categories (MDC). Once a patient is assigned a particular diagnostic category, providers receive a predetermined payment rate for the services rendered. This reimbursement rate is often fixed and is meant to cover the cost of care for that patient. Reimbursement is also affected by the relative weight of a diagnostic related group based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Diagnostic related groups encourage healthcare providers to focus on quality and efficiency in patient care while managing costs effectively. The diagnosis code is present in the following groups for version MS-DRG V41.0 applicable from 10/01/2023 through 09/30/2024.

The relative weight of a diagnostic related group determines the reimbursement rate based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.

Present on Admission (POA)

Q74.9 is exempt from POA reporting - The Present on Admission (POA) indicator is used for diagnosis codes included in claims involving inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals. POA indicators must be reported to CMS on each claim to facilitate the grouping of diagnoses codes into the proper Diagnostic Related Groups (DRG). CMS publishes a listing of specific diagnosis codes that are exempt from the POA reporting requirement. Review other POA exempt codes here.

Convert Q74.9 to ICD-9-CM

• ICD-9-CM Code: 755.50 - Upper limb anomaly NOS
  Approximate Flag - The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 and ICD-9 codes and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.
• ICD-9-CM Code: 755.9 - Congen limb anomaly NOS
  Approximate Flag - The approximate mapping means there is not an exact match between the ICD-10 and ICD-9 codes and the mapped code is not a precise representation of the original code.
