The final group also depends on procedures, secondary diagnoses and discharge status; the MS-DRG lookup for P29.89 shows the full grouping logic.

CC/MCC status and inpatient edits

P29.89 is neither a CC nor an MCC under MS-DRG v44, so as a secondary diagnosis it does not raise the MS-DRG severity level. Check P29.89 against a principal diagnosis.

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

CMS-HCC V28 risk adjustment

P29.89 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.

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.
