ABSTRACT
In order to compare the setting of difference coefficients in DRG point payment in different cities in Zhejiang province, the implementation rules of DRG point payment issued by 11 cities in Zhejiang province were comprehensively analyzed. It was found that the difference coefficients in different cities could be divided into three categories, including hospital coefficients alone, hospital coefficients and grade coefficients weighted, and weighted by hospital coefficients, grade coefficients, personal burden levels, case mix indexes, and head-to-time ratio. Its setting differences included four aspects: connotation composition, weight distribution, threshold value, and classification of medical institutions. The authors suggested that the adjustment cycle should be set scientifically to dynamically adjust the difference coefficient, and the scientific setting of the difference coefficient should be promoted through provincial coordination.
