Which MS-DRGs does B65.1 group to?
B65.1 sits in MDC 07 and helps define the logic of 3 MS-DRGs (version 44, FY2027). Which one a stay actually groups to also depends on procedures and secondary diagnoses.
- 441Disorders of Liver Except Malignancy, Cirrhosis or Alcoholic Hepatitis with MCCmedical
- 442Disorders of Liver Except Malignancy, Cirrhosis or Alcoholic Hepatitis with CCmedical
- 443Disorders of Liver Except Malignancy, Cirrhosis or Alcoholic Hepatitis without CC/MCCmedical
As a secondary diagnosis, B65.1 is a complication or comorbidity (CC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.
