Step 7A : SDX/SDX ExclusionsClosely related secondary diagnoses are placed into groups together with clinically similar diagnoses.

All other secondary diagnoses in the group are eliminated. Number of SDX Groups : 1

Step 7B : Specific/General SDX/SDX ExclusionsSubsets of the groups in 7A are designated as "general secondary diagnosis groups" (GenSDX) or "specific secondary diagnosis groups" (SpecsSDX). Each specific secondary diagnosis group will have one or more general secondary diagnosis groups associated with it. If a diagnosis in a specific group is present, all diagnoses in the general groups associated with the specific group will be eliminated. The one exception is if the diagnosis in the general group creates an explicit secondary diagnosis combination in Step 17; when this occurs, both the specific and general groups are maintained. If the severity level of the diagnosis in the general group is higher than the severity level of the diagnosis in the specific group, the diagnosis in the general group is eliminated while the severity level of the diagnosis in the specific group is increased to be equal to the severity level of the diagnosis in the general group.

Step 7C : General/General SDX/SDX ExclusionsIf there is no corresponding specific group diagnosis and there are diagnoses in multiple general groups present that would have been eliminated had the specific group been present, a hierarchy of general groups is used to eliminate all but one of the diagnoses in the general groups. If any of the severity levels of the diagnoses being eliminated is higher than the severity level of the general group that is highest in the general group hierarchy, the severity level of the diagnosis that is in the general group that is the highest in the hierarchy is increased to the severity level of the eliminated diagnosis with the highest severity level.

Step 10 : Subclass modification by PDX and APR DRGCompute a Modified Patient Severity Subclass based on the PDX/APR DRG combination. Modifications may be made to the severity of illness due to the clinical implications of the principal diagnosis combined with the APR DRG. The severity of illness subclass from Step 9 can be either increased or decreased based on the specific combinations of Principal Diagnosis and APR DRG.

Step 11B : Subclass modification by PDX, APR DRG and AgeCompute a Modified Patient Severity Subclass based on the PDX/APR DRG combination within the patient age range. The severity of illness subclass from Step 9 can be either increased or decreased based on the specific combinations of PDX, APR DRG and Age.

Step 11C : Not applicable

Step 12 : Subclass modification by APR DRG and non-OR procedure Compute a Modified Patient Severity Subclass based on a combination of the APR DRG and the presence of certain non-OR procedures which DO NOT affect APR DRG assignment. For some APR DRGs the presence of certain non-OR procedures indicates a more severely ill patient.



The severity of illness subclass from Step 9 can be either increased or decreased based on the specific combinations of APR DRG and non-OR procedures. If there is more than one non-OR procedure present that falls into this category, the non-OR procedure/APR DRG combination which results in the highest subclass is selected.

APR DRG 253 not included in Step 12, set to value in Step 9.Non-OR/APR DRG Severity Subclass (12) : 2

Step 13 : Subclass modification by APR DRG and OR procedure Compute a Modified Patient Severity Subclass based on a combination of the APR DRG and the presence of certain OR procedures which affect APR DRG assignment. Within specific APR DRGs, some OR procedures are indicative of higher severity of illness relative to the other OR procedures in the APR DRG. Conversely, within specific APR DRGs, some OR procedures are indicative of lower severity of illness. The severity of illness subclass from Step 9 can be either increased or decreased based on the specific combinations of APR DRG and OR procedures. If there is more than one OR procedure present that falls into this category, the OR procedure/APR DRG combination which results in the highest subclass is selected.

APR DRG 253 not included in Step 13, set to value in Step 9.OR Procedure/APR DRG Severity Subclass (13) : 2

Step 14 : Subclass modification by APR DRG and multiple procedures Compute a Modified Patient Severity Subclass based on the existence of an OR Procedure/Category combination. Within specific APR DRGs some pairs of OR procedures are indicative of higher severity of illness relative to the other patients in the APR DRG. There are specific areas where multiple procedures are a significant determinant of severity of illness. If one OR procedure category is listed for a specified APR DRG, then the patient subclass value from Step 9 is increased. If two OR procedure categories are listed but it does not define the APR DRG, then the patient subclass value from Step 9 is increased.

APR DRG 253 not included in Step 14, set to value in Step 9.Procedure Category Pair Severity Subclass (14) : 2

Step 15 : Subclass modification for ECMOCompute a Modified Patient Severity Subclass based on a combination of APR DRG and the presence of certain specified procedures. This step is specific to the logic of how one APR DRG is defined, APR DRG 583 Neonate with ECMO. For this APR DRG, some neonates have a major OR procedure(s) performed which indicate a more severely ill patient. Those neonates who do not have a major OR procedure(s) performed are at a significantly lower severity of illness. If one or more major procedure(s) is present the highest subclass value will be selected. For neonates without a major procedure the severity of illness subclass value from Step 9 will decrease.



APR DRG 253 not included in Step 15, set to value in Step 9OR procedure/APR DRG Severity Subclass (15) : 2

Step 16 : Subclass modification by APR DRG, PDX and non-OR procedureCompute a Modified Patient Severity Subclass based on the presence of certain non-OR procedure/PDX/APR DRG combinations. Within an APR DRG, specific principal diagnoses in combination with certain non-OR procedures indicate a more severely ill patient. If one of these combinations is present, the severity of illness subclass from Step 9 can be increased. This step applies to a limited number of patients, mostly cancer patients receiving chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

APR DRG 253 not included in Step 16, set to value in Step 9.Non-OR/PDX/APR DRG Severity Subclass (16) : 2

Step 17 : Subclass modification for multiple SDXsCompute a Modified Patient Subclass Value (MPSV) based on the presence of specific combinations of categories of SDXs.The presence of certain combinations of secondary diagnoses has a great clinical significance, therefore, a minimum patient severity of illness subclass greater than minor (1) is established if certain combinations of secondary diagnoses are present. Each secondary diagnosis is assigned to a disease category which are defined with varying levels of severity of illness. An assignment process has been established to account for the interaction and increased severity of these situations. Any secondary diagnosis for which the MSL in Step 8 is less than the Category Subclass Value is excluded from this step.

The table presented in Step 17 references secondary diagnosis categories and severity level combinations. The results of the analysis for multiple interacting diagnoses are presented in the table below. If a category combination is present, and the conditions for that combination type as listed in the table are met, then assign the modified patient severity subclass value as indicated in the table. If a category combination is present, and the conditions for that combination type as listed in the table are not met, then assign the modified patient severity subclass value from Step 9.

Note : MDC 15 applies different logic for Step 17. If patients in APR DRGs 626 or 640 have multiple other problems, then a modified patient severity subclass of 3 is set.

The above 10 modified subclass results are used to compute the final subclass value based on the following hierarchy. In the hierarchy table, the base severity subclass refers to the subclass from Step 9. The maximum Phase III decrease means the maximum decrease of any Phase III step that decreases the severity subclass. The maximum Phase III increase means the maximum III step that increases the severity subclass. "Actual" increase or decrease means that the Step respectively increased or decreased the severity subclass. "Tried" increase or decrease means that the logic of the Step would have respectively increased or decreased the severity subclass but the severity subclass was at its respective maximum or minimum allowed by the Step.

Each secondary diagnosis is assigned to a disease category are defined with varying levels of risk of mortality. An assignment process has been established to account for the interaction and increased risk of mortality of these situations. Any secondary diagnosis for which the MML in Step 8 is less than the Category Subclass Value is excluded from this step.

The table presented in Step 17 references secondary diagnosis categories and risk of mortality level combinations. The results of the analysis for multiple interacting diagnoses are presented in the table below. If a category combination is present, and the conditions for that combination type as listed in the table are met, then assign the modified patient risk of mortality subclass value as indicated in the table. If a category combination is present, and the conditions for that combination type as listed in the table are not met, then assign the modified patient risk of mortality subclass value from Step 9.Note: MDC 15 applies different logic for Step 17.
