D55-D59 — Hemolytic anemias
Every ICD-10-CM code in this range and the PDGM clinical group CMS assigns to it, read from the CMS grouper crosswalk v07.2.26.
Codes in range

A period cannot be grouped from these.

Where these codes group
72 of the 79 codes in D55-D59 group to MMTA - Infectious Disease, Neoplasms, and Blood-Forming Diseases, but the range is not uniform — it spreads across 2 clinical groups. A further 1 are assigned no clinical group at all, which means a 30-day period cannot be grouped from them.
