8 Technical changes APR DRG v29.0 includes technical changes to grouping logic. Procedure marking tie breaking logic With APR DRG v29.0, there is new logic when two or more procedures on the record could impact the admission DRG assignment, the discharge DRG assignment, or both: If one of these procedures is in the first procedure position that procedure will be flagged with the following exceptions: If a single procedure designating a complete system is tied with a combination pair that also designated a complete system, the single procedure will be flagged regardless of position. If multiple combinations of lead/device pairs are tied then only one pair will be flagged regardless of position. If the two procedures tied are an OR and non-or, the OR will be flagged regardless of position. If none of the tied procedures is in the first procedure position, then the procedure with the lowest ASCII/index value will be flagged. This change is not retroactive to earlier versions.
