Collection and Usage Attributes
Queensland Hospital Admitted Patient Data Collection (QHAPDC):
As part of QHAPDC processing of admitted patient data by SSB, DRGs are calculated using the "derived from" related data items and any discrepancies with facility calculated items are queried with the facility. Multiple AR-DRG version codes are generated and made available by the SSB for funding and reporting purposes.
The development of the Australian Refined Diagnosis Related Groups (AR-DRG) has created a descriptive framework for studying hospitalisation. DRGs provide a summary of the varied reasons for hospitalisation and the complexity of cases a hospital treats. Moreover, as a framework for describing the products of a hospital (that is, patients receiving services), they allow meaningful comparisons of hospitals' efficiency and effectiveness under alternative systems of health care provision.
The AR-DRG is derived from a range of data collected on admitted patients, including diagnosis and procedure information, classified using ICD-10-AM/ACHI. AR-DRG version 9.0 is for use with ICD-10-AM/ACHI 10th edition codes from 1 July 2017.
