TYPE II M.I. CODING
We are currently looking at our DRG assignments for Sepsis with a Type II M.I. due to demand ischemia from the Sepsis . Our Coders are placing these patients in a DRG of 280. With Sepsis as the Principal/ Admitting diagnosis, and the Secondary diagnosis the Type II M.I. Their Encoder puts the patients in 280. Is this correct?
