DRGMedicalMDC 01

MS-DRG 094 is bacterial and tuberculous infections of nervous system with mcc, in MDC 01 (a medical DRG), at the with-MCC (major complication or comorbidity) level. Its FY2027 relative weight is 3.4124, so a case here pays more than the average Medicare inpatient stay (weight 1.0), with a geometric mean length of stay of 7.70 days. 23 ICD-10-CM principal diagnoses group into MS-DRGs 094–096 under the CMS definitions manual; the most-searched are listed below.
