The term "DRG" stands for "diagnosis related group" and is used primarily
for institutional (hospital) claims.

DRG is not a name of a segment.  Iknow I am non-contextual in the matter.  I
need the help on the acronym and perhaps the semantics.

I agree with Jan.  As a provider I would need to know the DRG we were paid
on especially if it doesn't match what we submitted on the initial claim.

I think we are a victim of our vocubulary (yet again!).

This is not 'bundling' in the sense of pages 25 - 27.  DRG 'bundling' is
'what DRG do I get out of my DRG bundling software?'  Many providers and
payers own DRG bundling software (yes, providers are often required to
submit a DRG on a claim).  It is used to determine the appropriate DRG for
a given set of services.

This is a 'which DRG do I put in the 835?" question.  The DRG submitted by
the provider or the DRG used by the payer to pay the claim?  I think the
answer is the DRG used to pay the claim.  That way the provider can compare
their DRG with the payer's DRG.  If there is a disagreement about the DRG
(and hence the payment), then that can be easily identified and resolved.

Other thoughts?
