Hi,

I work with a 3M encoder, I have noticed on newborn charts that adding ICD Z67.40 for the blood type it is putting the DRG into 794 for neonate with other significant problems. Is this accurate, has anyone noticed this or does my encoder have a problem that the vendor needs to fix? If you have a resource that would also be appreciated.

Thank you
 
From what I can see Z codes are not listed under DRG 794 and its not considered a CC or MCC when used as a secondary DX. DRG version 34
