- Change
- L89.159 -> L89.153
- Secondary-diagnosis level
- non-CC → MCC
- MS-DRG (illustrative)
- 193 Simple pneumonia and pleurisy with MCC → 193 Simple pneumonia and pleurisy with MCC
- Relative weight
- 1.3144 → 1.3144 (+0.0000)
- Codes before
- J18.9, E46, N28.9, I50.33, D62, L89.159

All open gaps on this encounter together: MS-DRG 193 → 193 (RW +0.0000). The grouping does not change; the record becomes accurate.
CC/MCC status, CC exclusions (subset) and relative weights from the public CMS FY2026 IPPS final rule tables (5, 6I, 6J, 6K). This is not a grouper and not a payment estimate. Queries never mention any of this.
