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 08 — Biopsies of Musculoskeletal System and Connective Tissue: DRG 477, DRG 478, DRG 479
- MDC 10 — Other Endocrine, Nutritional and Metabolic O.R. Procedures: DRG 628, DRG 629, DRG 630
- MDC 11 — Other Kidney and Urinary Tract Procedures: DRG 673, DRG 674, DRG 675
- MDC 12 — Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures: DRG 715, DRG 716, DRG 717, DRG 718
- MDC 16 — Other O.R. Procedures of the Blood and Blood Forming Organs: DRG 802, DRG 803, DRG 804
From the CMS MS-DRG Definitions Manual, Appendix E. Actual DRG assignment depends on the complete claim.
