Which MS-DRGs does K31.82 group to?
K31.82 sits in MDC 06 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.
- 377Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage with MCCmedical
- 378Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage with CCmedical
- 379Gastrointestinal Hemorrhage without CC/MCCmedical
As a secondary diagnosis, K31.82 is a major complication or comorbidity (MCC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.
