Codes that reach this DRG

3748 ICD-10-CM diagnoses. Each maps here on its own; procedure clusters can also reach this DRG through combinations, listed separately below. Too many to list: this is a catch-all class that sweeps in most of the code set, so the count is more informative than the codes.
