Summary
The operating room procedure list that assigns a case to DRG 469 or 470 was searched for the strings robot and computer assisted and returned zero matches. Assignment turns on the joint replacement ICD-10-PCS codes and on whether a major complication or comorbidity is present. Nothing in the classification recognises the instrument used. This is the v43.0 manual published with the FY2026 proposed rule; CMS had not posted an equivalent final-rule HTML manual at this address at access.
