Which MS-DRGs does Q25.8 group to?
Q25.8 sits in MDC 05 and helps define the logic of 2 MS-DRGs (version 44, FY2027). Which one a stay actually groups to also depends on procedures and secondary diagnoses.
- 306Cardiac Congenital and Valvular Disorders with MCCmedical
- 307Cardiac Congenital and Valvular Disorders without MCCmedical
As a secondary diagnosis, Q25.8 is a complication or comorbidity (CC), which can move a stay into a higher-paying DRG.
