	DRG
		At DRG we understand that the nonprofit sector is a large and complex industry with issues, trends, and concerns separate from any other industry.
		DRG´s professionals –who all come from the nonprofit sector–know how to consult with Boards; they understand how nonprofit businesses work because they come from similar businesses.
		DRG is often asked to help with structuring a compensation offer and to play a role in communicating that offer.

	USGS - Digital Raster Graphics Program Overview
		DRG georeferencing reduces map error caused by paper shrinking and stretching, but it also introduces error during the manual matching of image and control points.
		DRGs made with this color model typically have higher visual quality, but may be less suitable for automatic data manipulation and GIS applications.
		DRGs replaced to correct georeferencing or serious image quality errors will be replaced free of charge for one year after the error is found and corrected.

	DRGs: Overview
		DRG grouper software (licensed from Health Systems Consultants) uses "principal diagnosis, secondary diagnoses, surgical procedures, age, sex and discharge status of the patients treated" (DRG Definitions Manual, 1994) to assign inpatient records to a specific DRG.
		DRG information (e.g., DRG, RDRG®, ADRGs) is attached to each record in the MCHP hospital data bases.
		Although there have been countless versions of DRGs since they were first developed in the 1960s, the official version number associated with each DRG grouper refers to the version since the implementation of the prospective payment system (PPS) in the United States in 1983.

	Mojave Desert DRG data.
		A DRG is useful as a source or background layer in a GIS, as a means to perform quality asurance on other digital products, and as a source for the collection and revision of vector data.
		This noise is in the form of random specks or pixels of color and halos due to any number of factors, such as, the quality of the source, the use of screens and patterns on the litho, and the unevenness of ink due to saturation and absorption.
		In the DRG the vertical positional accuracy is referenced in the DRG collar.

	Refinement of the Medicare DRGs to Incorporate a Measure of Severity 6-1-94 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Cases are assigned to a DRG based on the principal diagnosis, up to 8 additional (secondary) diagnoses, and up to 6 procedures performed during the stay, as well as age, sex, and discharge status of the patient.
		For medical DRGs, the relative weights of the Moderate class DRGs are, on average, almost 40 percent higher than the minor or no CC class and the major DRGs have on average, a relative weight 65 percent higher than the moderate class.
		We believe these DRGs are necessary to handle special cases, but we routinely review them to identify those procedures occurring in conjunction with certain principal diagnoses with sufficient frequency to justify adding them to one of the surgical DRGs for the MDC in which the diagnosis falls.

	DRG- Digital Raster Graphics Products
		A digital raster graphic (DRG) is a scanned image of a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) topographic map which are produced by private organizations through an innovative partnership with the USGS.
		DRG’s are “rough” representations of USGS maps, and are a low-cost alternative to electronic versions of USGS maps.
		When the DRG is combined with other digital products, such as digital orthophoto quadrangles (DOQ) or digital elevation models (DEM), the resulting image provides additional visual detail for the extraction and revision of base cartographic information.

		Similarly, for cases assigned to DRG 2, we found the average charges of approximately $36,077 are consistent with the overall average charges of that DRG of approximately $32,000.
		DRG 217 is hierarchically ordered higher in the surgical group than DRG 497, which is the reason the case is assigned to DRG 217.
		DRGs 468, 476, and 477 are reserved for those cases in which none of the O.R. procedures performed are related to the principal diagnosis.

		Each DRG weight represents the average resources required to care for cases in that particular DRG relative to the average resources used to treat cases in all DRGs.
		Cases are classified into DRGs for payment under the prospective payment system based on the principal diagnosis, up to eight additional diagnoses, and up to six procedures performed during the stay, as well as age, sex, and discharge status of the patient.

		Wafer cases are assigned to a DRG that is clinically coherent and reflects the resources used to treat these cases.
		Wafer cases are assigned to DRG 1 (with complications), but that proportion could shift if use in patients undergoing primary surgery increases because primary surgery patients are likely to have fewer complications.
		Assuming that the hospital’s DRG Grouper is up-to-date for fiscal year (FY) 2005 (which begins on October 1, 2004), the recorded diagnosis and the ICD-9-CM procedure code 00.10, Implantation of chemotherapeutic agent, along with the appropriate craniotomy procedure codes, should automatically group the procedure into DRG 543.

	Digital Raster Graphics - DRGs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Storage, retrieval, and display of large raster data sets such as DRG's poses one of the principal design challenges for the USGS DRG program; that is, data files must remain as small as possible while preserving image quality in a public domain file format that is common to imaging and GIS software.
		Therefore, the projection of the DRG will not always be consistent with the credit note on the image collar.
		Because it is fit to the theoretical quadrangle corners based on the UTM projection, the DRG may have distortions outside the map projection lines.
