Statewide Benchmark Top 25 DRGs
The following pdf tables meet the requirements established by AB 1045 and were developed using the patient discharge data file aggregated at the hospital level. Using the statewide Top 25 Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs) as benchmarks, the table displays the total number of discharges, average charge per stay for the selected hospital and average charge per stay statewide. Note that any particular hospital may not have discharges in all 25 of the Diagnosis Related Groups (e.g., specialty hospitals such as maternity hospitals will not have DRGs for cardiac surgery).

Top 25 DRGs:
These pivot profiles and pdf tables display each individual hospital's top 25 DRGs by three categories: number of discharges, average length of stay, and average charge per stay. These were also developed from the patient discharge data file, aggregated at the hospital level but do NOT include statewide benchmarks.
