Diagnostic Related Groups - MS-DRG Mapping
The ICD-10 code Q83.8 is grouped in the following groups for version MS-DRG V39.0 What are Diagnostic Related Groups?
The Diagnostic Related Groups (DRGs) are a patient classification scheme which provides a means of relating the type of patients a hospital treats. The DRGs divides all possible principal diagnoses into mutually exclusive principal diagnosis areas referred to as Major Diagnostic Categories (MDC). applicable from 10/01/2021 through 09/30/2022.
MS-DRG | MS-DRG Title | MCD | Relative Weight |
---|---|---|---|
600 | NON-MALIGNANT BREAST DISORDERS WITH CC/MCC | 09 | 0.9957 |
601 | NON-MALIGNANT BREAST DISORDERS WITHOUT CC/MCC | 09 | 0.6876 |
The relative weight of a diagnostic related group determines the reimbursement rate based on the severity of a patient's illness and the associated cost of care during hospitalization.
Present on Admission (POA)
Q83.8 is exempt from POA reporting - The Present on Admission (POA) indicator is used for diagnosis codes included in claims involving inpatient admissions to general acute care hospitals. POA indicators must be reported to CMS on each claim to facilitate the grouping of diagnoses codes into the proper Diagnostic Related Groups (DRG). CMS publishes a listing of specific diagnosis codes that are exempt from the POA reporting requirement. Review other POA exempt codes here.
CMS POA Indicator Options and Definitions
POA Indicator Code | POA Reason for Code | CMS will pay the CC/MCC DRG? |
---|---|---|
Y | Diagnosis was present at time of inpatient admission. | YES |
N | Diagnosis was not present at time of inpatient admission. | NO |
U | Documentation insufficient to determine if the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. | NO |
W | Clinically undetermined - unable to clinically determine whether the condition was present at the time of inpatient admission. | YES |
1 | Unreported/Not used - Exempt from POA reporting. | NO |

Information for Patients
Breast Diseases
Most women experience breast changes at some time. Your age, hormone levels, and medicines you take may cause lumps, bumps, and discharges (fluids that are not breast milk).
If you have a breast lump, pain, discharge or skin irritation, see your health care provider. Minor and serious breast problems have similar symptoms. Although many women fear cancer, most breast problems are not cancer.
Some common breast changes are
- Fibrocystic breast changes - lumpiness, thickening and swelling, often just before a woman's period
- Cysts - fluid-filled lumps
- Fibroadenomas - solid, round, rubbery lumps that move easily when pushed, occurring most in younger women
- Intraductal papillomas - growths similar to warts near the nipple
- Blocked milk ducts
- Milk production when a woman is not breastfeeding
