Clinical Information
- TRICHINELLOSIS-. an infection with trichinella. it is caused by eating raw or undercooked meat that is infected with larvae of nematode worms trichinella genus. all members of the trichinella genus can infect human in addition to trichinella spiralis the traditional etiological agent. it is distributed throughout much of the world and is re emerging in some parts as a public health hazard and a food safety problem.
Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping
The ICD-10 code B75 is grouped in the following groups for version MS-DRG V39.0 What are Diagnostic Related Groups?
The Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a patient classification scheme which provides a means of relating the type of patients a hospital treats. The DRGs divides all possible principal diagnoses into mutually exclusive principal diagnosis areas referred to as Major Diagnostic Categories (MDC). applicable from 10/01/2021 through 09/30/2022.
| MS-DRG | MS-DRG Title | MCD | Relative Weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 867 | OTHER INFECTIOUS AND PARASITIC DISEASES DIAGNOSES WITH MCC | 18 | 2.2295 |
| 868 | OTHER INFECTIOUS AND PARASITIC DISEASES DIAGNOSES WITH CC | 18 | 1.0584 |
| 869 | OTHER INFECTIOUS AND PARASITIC DISEASES DIAGNOSES WITHOUT CC/MCC | 18 | 0.726 |
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.

Information for Patients
Parasitic Diseases
Parasites are living things that use other living things - like your body - for food and a place to live. You can get them from contaminated food or water, a bug bite, or sexual contact. Some parasitic diseases are easily treated and some are not.
Parasites range in size from tiny, one-celled organisms called protozoa to worms that can be seen with the naked eye. Some parasitic diseases occur in the United States. Contaminated water supplies can lead to Giardia infections. Cats can transmit toxoplasmosis, which is dangerous for pregnant women. Others, like malaria, are common in other parts of the world.
If you are traveling, it's important to drink only water you know is safe. Prevention is especially important. There are no vaccines for parasitic diseases. Some medicines are available to treat parasitic infections.
