MS-DRG 022: INTRACRANIAL VASCULAR PROCEDURES WITH PRINCIPAL DIAGNOSIS HEMORRHAGE WITHOUT CC/MCC
MS-DRG 022 is intracranial vascular procedures with principal diagnosis hemorrhage without cc/mcc, in MDC 01 (a surgical DRG), at the without-CC/MCC level. Its FY2027 relative weight is 3.3534, so a case here pays more than the average Medicare inpatient stay (weight 1.0), with a geometric mean length of stay of 1.60 days. 99 ICD-10-CM principal diagnoses group into MS-DRGs 020–022 under the CMS definitions manual; the most-searched are listed below.

Principal diagnoses that group to MS-DRGs 020–022
From the CMS MS-DRG definitions manual’s principal-diagnosis index: 99 ICD-10-CM codes route here, and the CC/MCC status of the secondary diagnoses decides which of 020–022 the case lands in. The 24 most-searched:
- I60.9Nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, unspecified
- I61.9Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage, unspecified
- I62.9Nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage, unspecified
- I61.0Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage in hemisphere, subcortical
- I62.00Nontraumatic subdural hemorrhage, unspecified
- I61.1Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage in hemisphere, cortical
- I61.5Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage, intraventricular
- I61.8Other nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage
- I60.7Nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage from unspecified intracranial artery
- I62.01Nontraumatic acute subdural hemorrhage
- I62.03Nontraumatic chronic subdural hemorrhage
- I60.31Nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage from right posterior communicating artery
- I60.32Nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage from left posterior communicating artery
- I60.8Other nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage
- I61.2Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage in hemisphere, unspecified
