Potential MS-DRG Relationships (FY2026)

The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 2 MS-DRGs:

  • MDC PRE — Heart Transplant or Implant of Heart Assist System: DRG 001, DRG 002

From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.

Contextual Map

Every relationship of 02RA0LZ in one view: hierarchy, official tabular instructions in both directions, clinical classification, risk adjustment, MS-DRG participation, index terms and change history — each edge carrying the CMS source it derives from.
