Chapter 14 Healthcare Statistics Marjorie H. McNeill, PhD, RHIA, CCS, FAHIMA Real-World Case 14.1 The performance improvement committee of Community Regional Medical Center wanted to study MS-DRG 689 kidney and urinary tract infections with MCC (major complication or comorbidity) because of wide variations in length of stay (LOS) and total charges (refer to chapter 15, Revenue Management and Reimbursement, for more information on MS-DRGs and MCCs). The committee asked the HIM director to prepare a profile of patients discharged from MS-DRG 689. A summary of the patients discharged from MS-DRG 689 at Community Hospital was prepared using information found in the hospital's online database. Further research was performed on the individual patient records to determine if there was a correlation between the LOS and the MCCs for the patients.
