What is MS-DRG 690?
MS-DRG 690 is the Medicare Severity Diagnosis-Related Group for KIDNEY AND URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS WITHOUT MCC. 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, 2,285 hospitals reported 177,490 discharges for MS-DRG 690. The average hospital submitted charge was $36K, while the average amount Medicare actually paid was $6K — a 6.0× gap between list price and reimbursement, which is typical for Medicare inpatient claims.
