- Billable — Valid for Submission
- CC — Complication or Comorbidity
- Chronic Condition
D84.822 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for immunodeficiency due to external causes. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 814 through 816. 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 44 closely related codes. Coders also document this condition as immunodeficiency due to radiotherapy. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Immunity disorders.
D84.822 no longer risk-adjusts for Medicare Advantage: it mapped to HCC 47 under the retired CMS-HCC V24 model through payment year 2025 but maps to no category in the live V28 model. It still risk-adjusts in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22) category 47, ESRD (V21) category 47, ESRD (V24) category 47, and RxHCC Part D (V08) category 99 for payment year 2026.

Is D84.822 (Immunodeficiency due to drugs and external causes) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report immunodeficiency due to external causes on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does D84.822 group to?
When immunodeficiency due to external causes is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 814, 815, 816, with relative weights from 0.6320 to 2.1267 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is D84.822 a CC or MCC?
CMS lists D84.822 as a CC (complication or comorbidity) for FY 2026. Reported as a secondary diagnosis, it moves the inpatient stay to a higher-weighted DRG within its severity family. It does not count when the principal diagnosis is one of the 44 closely related codes in its exclusion list.
Does D84.822 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Not for Medicare Advantage. D84.822 mapped to HCC 47 in the retired CMS-HCC V24 model, which last determined payment in 2025, but it maps to no category in the live V28 model; see all codes that no longer risk-adjust. It still risk-adjusts in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22) category 47 (Disorders of Immunity), ESRD (V21) category 47 (Disorders of Immunity), ESRD (V24) category 47 (Disorders of Immunity), and RxHCC Part D (V08) category 99 (Immune Disorders).
