Hello Ingo,

Elpidio said you are developing DRG modules.
I would like to know if you or someone else is developing the algorithm to
assign a DRG to a patient. This algorithm has as input the following
variables:
- patient�s age
- patient�s sex
- admition date
- discharge date
- diagnosis codes (based on ICD-9 CM)
- procedure codes (based on ICD-9 CM)
I don�t know if this algorithm is patented.

Thanks,

Guillermo Fritz

Subject: [Care2002-developers] Another bug in DRG-Module


Hello,

I noticed one more bug in the DRG module.
I got no parent description for the ICD-code "R05" (german: "Husten"). In
ICD-10 (www.dimdi.de), there are no subcodes for R05, it is a code with
only three positions.

Normally, these codes are coded like "R05.-". But this one isn't. Maybe
there are other ones...
A possible (untested!) solution for this could be like (in
/include/inc_drg_entry_save.php):
"if(strpos($$selx,'.')=0) $data['code_parent']=$$selx;", or not to display
parent codes at all.

Does anybody know if someone fixed the error with "*" and "+" codes (like
"D63.8*") in the main version? I noticed, that it is running properly in
the web versions.

I'm still using Care2x deployment 1.1 (MySQL).

Regards

Ingo Zugenmaier
