V44.0 O.R. procedure Procedure cluster member MDC 05 Added in V41.0

An operating room procedure. An O.R. procedure drives DRG assignment on its own, so it can change the MDC and MS-DRG regardless of the principal diagnosis. It is also part of a procedure cluster, meaning certain combinations group differently than this code does alone.

Assigns to MDC 05

One MDC, with the conditional pathways below listed separately.

MDC 05 Diseases and Disorders of the Circulatory System
Aortic and Heart Assist Procedures Except Pulsation Balloon
