How a case is assigned to DRG 17

The grouper first assigns the case to Pre-MDC from the principal diagnosis and finds no qualifying operating-room procedure (this is a Medical DRG; ICD-10-PCS codes do not drive assignment here), then applies the severity split from secondary diagnoses: with CC/MCC → 16; without CC/MCC → 17.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is MS-DRG 17?

MS-DRG 17 (Autologous Bone Marrow Transplant without CC/MCC) is a medical DRG in Pre-MDC (Pre-MDC). Its FY 2026 relative weight is 4.8383 with a geometric mean length of stay of 8.3 days.

What is the difference between DRG 16, 17?

All 2 share the same base category; the severity of secondary diagnoses separates them: 16 (with CC/MCC), 17 (without CC/MCC). A major complication or comorbidity (MCC) places the case in the highest-weighted DRG of the family; a CC in the middle; neither in the lowest.

What is the relative weight of DRG 17?

The FY 2026 relative weight of this DRG is 4.8383, meaning reimbursement of roughly 4.84 times the average Medicare inpatient case. Multiply by a hospital's blended base rate for the approximate payment.
