Which MS-DRGs does J95.831 group to?

J95.831 sits in MDC 21 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.

  • 919Complications of Treatment with MCCmedical
  • 920Complications of Treatment with CCmedical
  • 921Complications of Treatment without CC/MCCmedical

As a secondary diagnosis, J95.831 is a complication or comorbidity (CC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.
