M33.11 is a billable ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other dermatomyositis with respiratory involvement. 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 15 closely related codes. In AHRQ's Clinical Classifications Software (CCSR), this diagnosis falls under Systemic lupus erythematosus and connective tissue disorders.
For Medicare Advantage risk adjustment, M33.11 maps to CMS-HCC Category 93 (Rheumatoid Arthritis and Other Specified Inflammatory Rheumatic Disorders) under the V28 model, adding a risk factor of about 0.617 for a community, non-dual, aged beneficiary in payment year 2026.

Clinical InformationClinical
Dermatomyositis
a subacute or chronic inflammatory disease of muscle and skin, marked by proximal muscle weakness and a characteristic skin rash. the illness occurs with approximately equal frequency in children and adults. the skin lesions usually take the form of a purplish rash (or less often an exfoliative dermatitis) involving the nose, cheeks, forehead, upper trunk, and arms. the disease is associated with a complement mediated intramuscular microangiopathy, leading to loss of capillaries, muscle ischemia, muscle-fiber necrosis, and perifascicular atrophy. the childhood form of this disease tends to evolve into a systemic vasculitis. dermatomyositis may occur in association with malignant neoplasms.

Patient EducationClinical
Myositis
Myositis means inflammation of the muscles that you use to move your body. An injury, infection, or autoimmune disease can cause it. Two specific kinds are polymyositis and dermatomyositis. Polymyositis causes muscle weakness, usually in the muscles closest to the trunk of your body.

Questions About M33.11Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for other dermatomyositis with respiratory involvement?
The ICD-10-CM code for other dermatomyositis with respiratory involvement is M33.11 (sometimes written as M3311). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
Is M33.11 (Other dermatomyositis) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report other dermatomyositis with respiratory involvement on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026.
What MS-DRG does M33.11 group to?
When other dermatomyositis with respiratory involvement 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 M33.11 a CC or MCC?
CMS lists M33.11 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 15 closely related codes in its exclusion list.
What is the ICD-9 equivalent of M33.11?
Under the General Equivalence Mappings, other dermatomyositis with respiratory involvement converts to ICD-9-CM 710.3 (dermatomyositis) and 517.8 (lung involv in oth dis). The mapping is approximate, so confirm the match fits the documentation.
What HCC is M33.11?
M33.11 (other dermatomyositis with respiratory involvement) maps to CMS-HCC Category 93 (Rheumatoid Arthritis and Other Specified Inflammatory Rheumatic Disorders), commonly written as HCC 93, 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 227.
Does M33.11 risk-adjust for Medicare Advantage payment?
Yes. When documented and reported on a Medicare Advantage encounter, M33.11 adds a risk adjustment factor of about 0.617 to the beneficiary's RAF score for a community, non-dual, aged enrollee (published V28 weights range from 0.288 to 0.617 depending on the payment segment). HCC 93 sits at the top of its hierarchy, so no other condition category supersedes it. See the full factor table on the HCC 93 category page.
