0WQFXZZ ICD-10-PCS Code: Repair Abdominal Wall, External Approach

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 30 MS-DRGs:

• MDC 06 — Hernia Procedures except Inguinal and Femoral: DRG 353, DRG 354, DRG 355
• MDC 07 — Other Hepatobiliary or Pancreas O.R. Procedures: DRG 423, DRG 424, DRG 425
• MDC 09 — Other Skin, Subcutaneous Tissue and Breast Procedures: DRG 579, DRG 580, DRG 581
• MDC 11 — Minor Bladder Procedures: DRG 662, DRG 663, DRG 664
• MDC 12 — Other Male Reproductive System O.R. Procedures: DRG 715, DRG 716, DRG 717, DRG 718
• MDC 13 — Other Female Reproductive System O.R. Procedures: DRG 749, DRG 750
• 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
• MDC 21 — Other O.R. Procedures for Injuries: DRG 907, DRG 908, DRG 909
• MDC 24 — Other O.R. Procedures for Multiple Significant Trauma: DRG 957, DRG 958, DRG 959
