MS-DRG 310: CARDIAC ARRHYTHMIA AND CONDUCTION DISORDERS WITHOUT CC/MCC

DRGMedicalMDC 05

MS-DRG 310 is cardiac arrhythmia and conduction disorders without cc/mcc, in MDC 05 (a medical DRG), at the without-CC/MCC level. Its FY2027 relative weight is 0.5680, so a case here pays less than the average Medicare inpatient stay (weight 1.0), with a geometric mean length of stay of 1.80 days. 61 ICD-10-CM principal diagnoses group into MS-DRGs 308–310 under the CMS definitions manual; the most-searched are listed below.

Principal diagnoses that group to MS-DRGs 308–310

From the CMS MS-DRG definitions manual’s principal-diagnosis index: 61 ICD-10-CM codes route here, and the CC/MCC status of the secondary diagnoses decides which of 308–310 the case lands in. The 24 most-searched:

  • I48.91Unspecified atrial fibrillation
  • I48.0Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation
  • I44.2Atrioventricular block, complete
  • I47.20Ventricular tachycardia, unspecified
  • I48.20Chronic atrial fibrillation, unspecified
  • R00.0Tachycardia, unspecified
  • R00.1Bradycardia, unspecified
  • R00.2Palpitations
  • I47.10Supraventricular tachycardia, unspecified
  • I48.19Other persistent atrial fibrillation
  • I48.92Unspecified atrial flutter
  • I49.3Ventricular premature depolarization
  • I49.5Sick sinus syndrome
  • I44.1Atrioventricular block, second degree
  • I44.7Left bundle-branch block, unspecified
  • I47.19Other supraventricular tachycardia
  • I48.11Longstanding persistent atrial fibrillation
  • I48.21Permanent atrial fibrillation
  • I49.9Cardiac arrhythmia, unspecified
  • I44.0Atrioventricular block, first degree
  • I45.10Unspecified right bundle-branch block
  • I47.29Other ventricular tachycardia
