DRGMedicalMDC 01

MS-DRG 085 is traumatic stupor and coma <1 hour with mcc, in MDC 01 (a medical DRG), at the with-MCC (major complication or comorbidity) level. Its FY2027 relative weight is 2.2450, so a case here pays more than the average Medicare inpatient stay (weight 1.0), with a geometric mean length of stay of 4.40 days. 119 ICD-10-CM principal diagnoses group into MS-DRGs 085–087 under the CMS definitions manual; the most-searched are listed below.
