MINI VIDEO! Demystifying MS-DRGs

 


Download the slides HERE.

In this video, Anne Casto, RHIA, CCS will discuss Medicare-Severity Diagnosis Related Groups (MS-DRGs).  You will learn about the structure of the classification system and the process of assigning a MS-DRG to an acute care inpatient admission.

Understanding how MS-DRGs are assigned to acute care inpatient admissions is important for coding professionals, coding managers, and revenue cycle professionals. Being able to explain the logic behind MS-DRG assignments will help teams communicate documentation and coding needs to providers and clinicians.
