Accounting for nursing costs by DRG.

G L Reschak, D Biordi, K Holm

    The Journal of Nursing Administration
    |September 1, 1985
    PubMed
    Summary

    This study shows how to calculate total nursing costs using Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGs). It highlights nursing resource use inequities and potential financial risks of isolating these costs.

    Area of Science:

    • Health economics
    • Nursing management
    • Healthcare finance

    Background:

    • Accurate cost allocation is crucial for healthcare management.
    • Previous studies utilized patient classification systems for cost analysis.
    • Understanding nursing costs by Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGs) remains an area for refinement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To demonstrate the feasibility of determining total nursing costs allocated by DRGs.
    • To reinforce previous findings on patient classification systems in cost analysis.
    • To discuss implications for population trends, resource use inequities, and outliers.

    Main Methods:

    • Employed patient classification system methodology.
    • Analyzed nursing costs in relation to Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGs).
    • Identified trends, inequities, and outliers in nursing resource utilization.

    Main Results:

    • Confirmed the feasibility of calculating total nursing costs by DRGs.
    • Reinforced the utility of patient classification systems for cost determination.
    • Highlighted potential inequities in nursing resource use across different DRGs.

    Conclusions:

    • Determining nursing costs by DRGs is feasible and provides valuable insights.
    • The methodology supports understanding population trends and resource allocation.
    • Caution is advised regarding the potential financial liability associated with isolating nursing costs.
