CMS HH PPS Grouper Software and the CY2026 HH PPS Final Rule (CMS-1828-F)

Every PDGM clinical group in detail

Each group has its own page: how many ICD-10-CM codes CMS assigns to it, which subchapters those come from, its functional impairment bands, and every HIPPS code in the group with its LUPA threshold.

Built on the CMS HH PPS Grouper Software (code counts), Table 9 of the CY2026 HH PPS Final Rule (CMS-1828-F, functional bands) and CMS’s CY2026 case-mix weights and LUPA thresholds file. Chapter examples are illustrative; the grouper decides. Not certified, endorsed or approved by CMS.
