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 v07.1.26.
Codes in range
79
No clinical group
1
A period cannot be grouped from these.
Barred as primary

CMS rejects these in the primary position.
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.
