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.

Clinical InformationClinical
Anemia, Diamond-Blackfan
a rare congenital hypoplastic anemia that usually presents early in infancy. the disease is characterized by a moderate to severe macrocytic anemia, occasional neutropenia or thrombocytosis, a normocellular bone marrow with erythroid hypoplasia, and an increased risk of developing leukemia.

Patient EducationClinical
Aplastic Anemia
Aplastic anemia is a rare but serious blood disorder. If you have it, your bone marrow doesn't make enough new blood cells. It happens when there is damage to stem cells inside your bone marrow. There are different types of aplastic anemia, including Fanconi anemia.
