Questions About Q75.058Overview
What is the ICD-10 code for other multi-suture craniosynostosis?
The ICD-10-CM code for other multi-suture craniosynostosis is Q75.058 (sometimes written as Q75058). It is billable on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
Is Q75.058 (Multi-suture craniosynostosis) a billable code?
Yes. This is a billable ICD-10-CM code, specific enough to report other multi-suture craniosynostosis on HIPAA-covered claims from October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027.
What MS-DRG does Q75.058 group to?
When other multi-suture craniosynostosis is the principal diagnosis on an inpatient stay, it groups to MS-DRG 564, 566, 565, with relative weights from 0.7374 to 1.4909 depending on complications. Higher weights mean higher Medicare reimbursement.
Is Q75.058 exempt from POA reporting?
Yes. CMS lists this code among those exempt from present on admission reporting, so hospitals do not assign a POA indicator for other multi-suture craniosynostosis on inpatient claims. The code appears in the Congenital malformations and deformations of the musculoskeletal system (Q65-Q79) range of the CMS exempt list.
Can Q75.058 be reported with Q75.022?
Not as a rule. The Excludes1 note on Q75.058 lists "coronal craniosynostosis, bilateral (Q75.022)". An Excludes1 note means the excluded code is never reported together with this one; the only exception is when the two conditions are unrelated to each other (Official Guidelines, Section I.A.12.a).
