Potential MS-DRG Relationships (FY2026)
The MS-DRG grouper treats this as an operating room procedure. It appears in the surgical logic of 16 MS-DRGs:
- MDC 05 — Other Circulatory System O.R. Procedures: DRG 264
- MDC 06 — Stomach, Esophageal and Duodenal Procedures: DRG 326, DRG 327, DRG 328
- MDC 07 — Other Hepatobiliary or Pancreas O.R. Procedures: DRG 423, DRG 424, DRG 425
- MDC 10 — O.R. Procedures for Obesity: DRG 619, DRG 620, DRG 621
- MDC 17 — Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures: DRG 820, DRG 821, DRG 822
- MDC 17 — Myeloproliferative Disorders or Poorly Differentiated Neoplasms with Major O.R. Procedures: DRG 826, DRG 827, DRG 828
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
