Which MS-DRGs does C83.08 group to?

C83.08 sits in MDC 17 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.

  • 820Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with MCCsurgical
  • 821Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures with CCsurgical
  • 822Lymphoma and Leukemia with Major O.R. Procedures without CC/MCCsurgical

As a secondary diagnosis, C83.08 is a complication or comorbidity (CC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from C83

The conditions below can never be reported together with C83.08 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • personal history of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (Z85.72)

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from C83.0

The conditions below can never be reported together with C83.08 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.

  • chronic lymphocytic leukemia (C91.1)
  • mature T/NK-cell lymphomas (C84.-)
  • Waldenström macroglobulinemia (C88.00)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from C81-C96

The conditions below are not part of C83.08, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, C83.08 and the excluded code may both be reported.

  • Kaposi's sarcoma of lymph nodes (C46.3)
  • secondary and unspecified neoplasm of lymph nodes (C77.-)
  • secondary neoplasm of bone marrow (C79.52)
  • secondary neoplasm of spleen (C78.89)

How long has C83.08 existed?

C83.08 has been in ICD-10-CM since at least FY2016, the earliest fiscal year on record here.

Derived from the official order files for FY2016–FY2026. FY2017 and FY2020 publish no order file, so those years are not covered.
