Medical DRGCardiac Arrhythmia and Conduction Disorders with MCC
What is MS-DRG 308?
MS-DRG 308 is a Medical Medicare Severity Diagnosis Related Group under Major Diagnostic Category 05 (MDC 05) with a Major Complication or Comorbidity (MCC). It maps to 58 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. For FY 2026 it carries a relative weight of 1.2040 with a geometric mean length of stay of 3.4 days and an arithmetic mean of 4.5 days. Hospitals use this grouping to determine reimbursement for inpatient stays under Medicare.
