Pi® DRG Benchmark

Do you want to understand the costs of your profiles?

The DRG Benchmark is an in-house developed tool allowing a complete analysis of costs of all DRGs performed in a hospital in a given year vis-à-vis the hospitals in our Benchmark. Our Benchmark has information of over 40.000 unique DRG codes and holds therefore a large technical integrity and reliability.

It is because of this most of our clients decide to analyze the costs and profiles of their DRGs using our product. With our Benchmark outcomes, doctors and hospital management are given the opportunity to engage in a detailed analysis of costs and profiles from different perspectives.

The main benefits of the Benchmark include the provision of a

•  Clear overview of your DRGs costs vis-à-vis other hospitals
•  Clear overview activities and their costs vis-à-vis other hospitals
•  Clear overview of improvement potential

With the possibility of viewing both costs and profiles of DRGs, doctors and management can gain essential insight into the areas that need improvement. Consequently, our product is a tool for strategic planning: analysis of the current situation.

In addition to this, we can also split the difference between your costs and the benchmarks in a portion due to differences in treatment-profile (to be discussed with doctors) and differences due to costs of activities (topic for departmental managers).
