What is MS-DRG 191?
MS-DRG 191 is the Medicare Severity Diagnosis-Related Group for CHRONIC OBSTRUCTIVE PULMONARY DISEASE WITH CC. When a Medicare patient is discharged, the hospital stay is grouped into a single MS-DRG, and Medicare reimburses the hospital a fixed, predetermined amount for that group rather than itemizing each service.
Across the CMS Medicare Inpatient Hospitals by Provider dataset, 777 hospitals reported 24,554 discharges for MS-DRG 191. The average hospital submitted charge was $39K, while the average amount Medicare actually paid was $6K — a 6.3× gap between list price and reimbursement, which is typical for Medicare inpatient claims.
