2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code D84.9Immunodeficiency, unspecified
ICD-10-CM Codes›D50–D89›D80-D89›D84
- Billable — Valid for Submission
- CC — Complication or Comorbidity
- Chronic Condition
D84.9 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for immunodeficiency, unspecified. 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. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Immunity disorders.
D84.9 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.

Clinical InformationClinical
Livedo Reticularis
a condition characterized by a reticular or fishnet pattern on the skin of lower extremities and other parts of the body. this red and blue pattern is due to deoxygenated blood in unstable dermal blood vessels. the condition is intensified by cold exposure and relieved by rewarming.Livedoid Vasculopathy
a rare cutaneous thrombotic disease due to occlusion of dermal vessels. it is characterized by purpuric maculae and ulcerations especially during summer which form scars called atrophie blanche. it is more associated with other syndromes (e.g., protein c deficiency; hyperhomocysteinemia). livedo reticularis with systemic involvement and stroke is sneddon syndrome.Sneddon Syndrome
a systemic non-inflammatory arteriopathy primarily of middle-aged females characterized by the association of livedo reticularis, multiple thrombotic cerebral infarction; coronary disease, and hypertension. elevation of antiphospholipid antibody titers (see also antiphospholipid syndrome), cardiac valvulopathy, ischemic attack, transient; seizures; dementia; and chronic ischemia of the extremities may also occur. pathologic examination of affected arteries reveals non-inflammatory adventitial fibrosis, thrombosis, and changes in the media (from jablonski, dictionary of syndromes & eponymic diseases, 2d ed; adams et al., principles of neurology, 6th ed, p861; arch neurol 1997 jan;54(1):53-60). mutations in the cecr1 gene (ada2 protein, human) are associated with sneddon syndrome.Livedo Reticularis
a recurrent purple discoloration of the skin that does not blanche and is found in a lacy, network pattern, most often in the lower extremities. it may be aggravated by exposure to cold and is classified as idiopathic or secondary. secondary livedo reticularis may be a cutaneous manifestation of immune system disorders (e.g., lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, cryoglobulinemia, lymphoma, etc), and hematologic disorders (polycythemia vera).

Questions About D84.9Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for immunodeficiency, unspecified?
The ICD-10-CM code for immunodeficiency, unspecified is D84.9 (sometimes written as D849). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
Is D84.9 (Other immunodeficiencies) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report immunodeficiency, unspecified on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does D84.9 group to?
When immunodeficiency, unspecified 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 D84.9 a CC or MCC?
CMS lists D84.9 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.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of D84.9?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, immunodeficiency, unspecified converts to ICD-9-CM 279.3 (immunity deficiency NOS). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
Does D84.9 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Not for Medicare Advantage. D84.9 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).
