Which MS-DRGs does C84.08 group to?
C84.08 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, C84.08 is a complication or comorbidity (CC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from C84.0
The conditions below can never be reported together with C84.08 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not elsewhere classified (C84.4-)
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from C81-C96
The conditions below are not part of C84.08, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, C84.08 and the excluded code may both be reported.
