MS-DRG Grouper Relationships (FY2026)
Potential MS-DRG participation — not a DRG assignment.
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 2 MS-DRGs:
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
