Functions of the Context-Grouper

Many hospitals are confronted with the question of whether a patient case can be admitted as an inpatient or treated as an outpatient. The context grouper answers this question in a matter of seconds!

The query is carried out in two steps. First, the planned or current main procedure is entered and a check is made as to whether there is a reference to the following catalogs:

  • AOP according to § 115b SGB V
  • Hybrid-DRG according to § 115f SGB V

In a further step, an extended input screen opens if the service is related to the AOP or Hybrid-DRG catalog. Other relevant factors such as diagnoses, accompanying procedures, degree of care, patient age etc. can be entered.

The Context-Grouper responds with a total of four possible scenarios. This gives you the greatest possible certainty when assigning the case to the inpatient or outpatient area.

  • If the case has no context factors, you will receive all billable GOP codes for your billing!
  • If the case has soft context factors, you will receive the corresponding MBEGs for your billing!

 

Scenario 1

The case has hard context factors

➔ We show you what these are!

Scenario 2

The case has soft context factors

➔ You receive the MBEGs!

Scenario 3

The case has no context factors

➔ Transfer to the EBM Grouper!
