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:

  • MDC 08 — Local Excision and Removal of Internal Fixation Devices of Hip and Femur: DRG 498, DRG 499

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