  • MS-DRG 082 — TRAUMATIC STUPOR AND COMA >1 HOUR WITH MCC (MDC 01)
  • MS-DRG 083 — TRAUMATIC STUPOR AND COMA >1 HOUR WITH CC (MDC 01)
  • MS-DRG 084 — TRAUMATIC STUPOR AND COMA >1 HOUR WITHOUT CC/MCC (MDC 01)

A diagnosis appearing in a group's logic does not by itself determine the DRG assigned to a stay; the grouper uses the full claim.
