(2) All inpatient hospital facility reimbursement provisions, including the following:
(A) Medicaid supplemental payments.
(B) Medicaid enhanced payments.

(b) The DRG to be assigned for an inpatient stay shall be a DRG that does not result in higher payment based on the presence of a hospital acquired condition that was not present on the date of admission.

Secondary diagnoses that are not present on the date of admission must be designated as such as part of the claim information submitted by an inpatient hospital facility in order for the diagnoses to be excluded for purposes of assigning the claim to a DRG.
(d) For purposes of this section, a "hospital acquired condition" means a condition associated with a diagnosis code selected by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 1395ww(d)(4)(D) and in effect on the date of admission.
