D75.81 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for myelofibrosis. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 820 through 825, 840 through 842. The code is a manifestation code that cannot be reported as the principal diagnosis. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Other specified and unspecified hematologic conditions.

These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.
Certain conditions have both an underlying etiology and multiple body system manifestations due to the underlying etiology. For such conditions, the ICD-10-CM has a coding convention that requires the underlying condition be sequenced first followed by the manifestation. Wherever such a combination exists, there is a "use additional code" note at the etiology code, and a "code first" note at the manifestation code. These instructional notes indicate the proper sequencing order of the codes, etiology followed by manifestation.
The “use additional code” indicates that a secondary code could be used to further specify the patient’s condition. This note is not mandatory and is only used if enough information is available to assign an additional code.
A type 1 excludes note is a pure excludes note. It means "NOT CODED HERE!" An Excludes1 note indicates that the code excluded should never be used at the same time as the code above the Excludes1 note. An Excludes1 is used when two conditions cannot occur together, such as a congenital form versus an acquired form of the same condition.

Bone Marrow Diseases
Bone marrow is the spongy tissue inside some of your bones, such as your hip and thigh bones. It contains stem cells. The stem cells can develop into the red blood cells that carry oxygen through your body, the white blood cells that fight infections, and the platelets that help with blood clotting.

Questions About D75.81Overview
Is D75.81 (Other specified diseases of blood and blood-forming organs) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report myelofibrosis on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does D75.81 group to?
On inpatient claims, myelofibrosis maps to MS-DRG 820, 821, 822, 823, 824, 825, 840, 841, 842, with relative weights from 1.0104 to 5.8648 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Can D75.81 be a principal diagnosis?
No. This is a manifestation code: myelofibrosis describes the manifestation of an underlying disease rather than the disease itself, so the underlying condition is sequenced first.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of D75.81?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, myelofibrosis converts to ICD-9-CM 289.83 (myelofibrosis). The mapping is a direct match.
