The final group also depends on procedures, secondary diagnoses and discharge status; the MS-DRG lookup for E83.820 shows the full grouping logic.

CC/MCC status and inpatient edits

As a secondary diagnosis, E83.820 is a CC under MS-DRG v44, unless the principal diagnosis is one of the 4 codes in its exclusion list. Check E83.820 against a principal diagnosis.

  • Present on admission: a POA indicator is required on inpatient claims.

CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment

E83.820 does not map to a payment HCC in the PY2027 CMS-HCC V28 model, so on its own it does not change a Medicare Advantage risk score.

For teams evaluating QuickIntell software

Evaluate software for diagnosis coding review

If your team codes diagnoses at volume, review how QuickCode supports qualified coder review of documentation, specificity queries and the billing handoff. Confirm the code sets, settings and reviewer responsibilities during evaluation; a code reference is not a coding determination for a patient.
