ICD-10-CM M32.11
CMSSource: CMS FY 2026 ICD-10-CM dataset · Effective Oct 1, 2025 – Sep 30, 2026

M32.11 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus. It is valid on HIPAA claims for fiscal year 2026 (October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026) and groups to MS-DRG 545 through 547. 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 9 closely related codes. Coders also document this condition as disorder of heart due to systemic lupus erythematosus. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Endocarditis and endocardial disease and Systemic lupus erythematosus and connective tissue disorders.

For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, M32.11 maps to CMS-HCC Category 94 (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Other Specified Systemic Connective Tissue Disorders) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 0.268 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2026.

Questions About M32.11Overview

What is the ICD-10 code for endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus?

The ICD-10-CM code for endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus is M32.11 (sometimes written as M3211). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

Is M32.11 a billable code?

Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.

What MS-DRG does M32.11 group to?

When endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 545, 546, 547, with relative weights from 0.8362 to 2.4817 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.

Is M32.11 a CC or MCC?

CMS lists M32.11 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 9 closely related codes in its exclusion list.

What is the ICD-9 equivalent of M32.11?

Under the General Equivalence Mappings, endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus converts to ICD-9-CM 710.0 (syst lupus erythematosus) and 424.91 (endocarditis in oth dis). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.

What HCC is M32.11?

M32.11 (endocarditis in systemic lupus erythematosus) maps to CMS-HCC Category 94 (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Other Specified Systemic Connective Tissue Disorders), commonly written as HCC 94, in the CMS-HCC V28 model used for Medicare Advantage risk adjustment in payment year 2026. It mapped to HCC 40 under the retired V24 model. It also maps in the PACE (CMS-HCC V22), ESRD (V21), and ESRD (V24) models. In the Part D prescription drug model it maps to RxHCC 84.

Does M32.11 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?

Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, M32.11 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.268 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.196 to 0.297 depending on the payment segment). A more severe related category (HCC 93) supersedes it when both are reported. See the full factor table on the HCC 94 category page.
