ICD-10-CM D61.09
CMSSource: CMS FY 2027 ICD-10-CM dataset · Effective Oct 1, 2026 – Sep 30, 2027

D61.09 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other constitutional aplastic anemia. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2027 (October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027) and groups to MS-DRG 808 through 810. As a secondary diagnosis, it counts as a complication or comorbidity (CC) and moves an inpatient stay to a higher severity level within its MS-DRG family. It does not count, however, when the principal diagnosis is one of 102 closely related codes. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Aplastic anemia.

For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, D61.09 maps to CMS-HCC Category 109 (Acquired Hemolytic, Aplastic, and Sideroblastic Anemias) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 1.144 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2027.

What HCC is D61.09?

D61.09 (other constitutional aplastic anemia) maps to CMS-HCC Category 109 (Acquired Hemolytic, Aplastic, and Sideroblastic Anemias), commonly written as HCC 109, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2027. It mapped to HCC 46 under the retired V24 model. It also maps in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22), ESRD (V21), and ESRD (V24) models. In the Part D prescription drug model it maps to RxHCC 96.

Does D61.09 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?

Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, D61.09 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 1.144 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.529 to 1.815 depending on the payment segment).
