ICD-10 · PDGM grouping
K55-K64 — Other diseases of intestines
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.

Where these codes group
134 of the 157 codes in K55-K64 group to MMTA - Gastrointestinal tract and Genitourinary system, but the range is not uniform — it spreads across 2 clinical groups. A further 5 are assigned no clinical group at all, which means a 30-day period cannot be grouped from them.
