Cardiac Arrhythmia and Conduction Disorders without CC/MCC
Major Diagnostic Category 05·Grouped by diagnosis·FY 2027
MS-DRG 310 is a Medical Medicare Severity Diagnosis Related Group under Major Diagnostic Category 05 (MDC 05) without a significant Complication or Comorbidity. It maps to 61 ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes. For FY 2027 it carries a relative weight of 0.5680 with a geometric mean length of stay of 1.8 days and an arithmetic mean of 2.1 days. Hospitals use this grouping to determine reimbursement for inpatient stays under Medicare.

FY 2027 payment data
From Table 5 of the FY 2027 IPPS Final Rule (CMS).
- Relative weight:
- 0.5680 (payment multiplier vs. the average case (1.0))
- Geometric mean stay:
- 1.8 days (used for transfer payments)
- Average stay:
- 2.1 days (arithmetic mean)
- Post-acute transfer policy:
- No (not subject to it)
Same condition, other severity levels
CMS splits one condition into separate DRGs by how sick the patient is. With MCC pays more than with CC, which pays more than without CC/MCC.
