All patient refined diagnosis related groups definitions manual version 15.0

The Australian Refined Diagnosis Related Groups (AR-DRGs) is a classification system, which provides a clinically meaningful way to relate the number and type of patients treated in a hospital to the resources required by the hospital. AR-DRGs group patients with similar diagnoses requiring similar hospital services. Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGs) are a patient classification scheme which provides a means of relating the type of patients a hospital treats to the costs the hospital incurs. DRGs consist of classes of patients that are similar clinically and in terms of their consumption of hospital resources. 3M APR DRGs were first released in The 3M APR DRG logic uses claims data to assign patients to one of base 3M APR DRGs that are determined either by the principal diagnosis or, for surgical patients, the most important surgical procedure. Each base 3M APR DRG is then divided into four severity of illness (SOI) levels, determined.
