Infectious and Parasitic Diseases, Systemic or Unspecified Sites

Surgical hierarchy

In the order the grouper applies them, highest first. A patient with several procedures is assigned to the highest surgical class one of them belongs to, so this ordering decides the DRG, not the order procedures appear on the claim.

1. 1 Postoperative or Post-Traumatic Infections with O.R. Procedures
   • 856 Postoperative or Post-Traumatic Infections with O.R. Procedures with MCC 4.4826
   • 857 Postoperative or Post-Traumatic Infections with O.R. Procedures with CC 2.1678
   • 858 Postoperative or Post-Traumatic Infections with O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC 1.4036
2. 2 Infectious and Parasitic Diseases with O.R. Procedures
   • 853 Infectious and Parasitic Diseases with O.R. Procedures with MCC 4.9306
   • 854 Infectious and Parasitic Diseases with O.R. Procedures with CC 2.0095
   • 855 Infectious and Parasitic Diseases with O.R. Procedures without CC/MCC 1.4510
