Which MS-DRGs does P53 group to?
P53 sits in MDC 15 and helps define the logic of 1 MS-DRG (version 44, FY2027). Which one a stay actually groups to also depends on procedures and secondary diagnoses.
- 791Prematurity with Major Problemsmedical
As a secondary diagnosis, P53 is a complication or comorbidity (CC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from P50-P61
The conditions below can never be reported together with P53 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 16
The conditions below are not part of P53, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, P53 and the excluded code may both be reported.
How long has P53 existed?
P53 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.
Which codes are confused with P53?
ICD-10-CM declares these codes mutually exclusive with P53 — exactly one of each pair can be correct for a given encounter.
