ICD-10-CM D89.9
CMSSource: CMS FY 2026 ICD-10-CM dataset · Effective Oct 1, 2025 – Sep 30, 2026

D89.9 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for disorder involving the immune mechanism, 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. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Immunity disorders.

D89.9 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.
