Take your ICD-10 planning and transition efforts to the next level. Introducing DRG Expert:  The Complete Official Draft MS-DRG Using the ICD-10 Code Set—a tool designed to prepare your facility for ICD-10 implementation. You’ll be able to accurately assign and validate MS-DRGs using the ICD-10 code set based on the most current version of DRG grouper logic.

With the added complexity of the ICD-10 coding system, there is potential impact to revenue and case mix. Facilities need to understand where to focus their ICD-10 training efforts in order to avoid loss of reimbursement.
