1 Integrated MS-DRG Grouper & Calculator Printable How To Guide MediRegs provides an integrated MS-DRG Grouper & Calculator that demonstrates MS-DRG grouping and payment under the Inpatient Prospective Payment System. The MS-DRG Analyzer upgrade extends the Grouper & Calculator to allow for batch processing of coding data and deeper payment analysis. These tools are excellent companions to the codebooks, the ICD-10 Explorer, and the NHA Payment System Data Files. Background Information The MS-DRG Grouper allows you to see how ICD diagnosis and procedure codes group into Medicare Severity Diagnostic Related Groups (MS-DRG) under the Medicare Inpatient Prospective Payment System (IPPS). The grouper logic is provided by the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services; the interface to that logic allows you to enter a claim manually or with a batch upload and get results on screen or in downloadable format. The MS-DRG Calculator & Analyzer performs a provider-specific calculation of the MS-DRG assigned. The calculator logic is based on the IPPS Final Rule Table 5 for MS-DRG weights, and the CMS IPPS Final Rules and PC-Pricer for provider variables. Using the Integrated MS-DRG Grouper & Calculator When you first enter the calculator, you will have two options: - If you already know the MS-DRG codes, click on the Calculate button at the top of the screen for a simplified data entry panel. - If you want to group a single claim for which you have ICD diagnosis and procedure code, click on the Group/Calculate button for a more detailed data entry panel. - Note: Users who have upgraded to the MS-DRG Analyzer also have the ability to group up to 200 claims at once using a simple excel upload feature, and perform more complex payment analyses including outlier adjustments, blended/base rate, per diem calculations and more.
2 2 To calculate payment by entering MS-DRG codes If you already know the MS-DRG code(s), click on the Calculate button at the top of the screen. The Calculator data entry panel allows you to enter Provider ID, Discharge Date, MS-DRG Code(s) and Length of Stay. Fields labeled in red are required. You can enter a single or multiple MS-DRG codes (separated by commas or spaces), and calculate the national unadjusted or provider-specific adjusted payment. Note: Grouping logic will historically group to 1999, but payment information is only shown for the last five years. Step-by-Step Instructions 1. Enter a provider id, or type the name of the hospital in the Enter Provider ID box. As you type, notice autosuggest options that you can click on. TIP: If you want to calculate the national unadjusted payment rate, click the National Unadjusted link. TIP: Use the Advance Provider Search to identify a provider ID by Name, ID, Zip, State, City, County or Address. After entering your search term, select the appropriate provider. 2. Enter the MS-DRG(s) in the Enter MS-DRG Code box. You can also click on the Search link to see a search by MDC or MS-DRG that auto-suggests based on your search. You can search a single code, a list of codes (separated by commas or spaces), or use the APPEND option in the lookup to create a list of codes as you search. 3. Enter the discharge date in the Discharge Date box, or leave this blank to calculate for the most recent date available. 4.
