Final DRG
The lowest accumulated charges paid to the hospital by patients for this diagnosis within the stated time period. Minimum
The total accumulated charges paid to the hospital by patients for this diagnosis divided by the number of discharges for this diagnosis. Generally, if the average is not near the median, this means that the patients with this diagnosis required very different care. (Some of them probably had serious complications.) If the average is near the median, this usually means that most patients with this diagnosis required similar care. Average
The midpoint between the highest and lowest accumulated charges. If the median is very different than the average, then the average may not be a reliable indicator. If the median is similar to the average, this usually means that most patients with this diagnosis required similar care. Median
The highest accumulated charges for a patient for this diagnosis. Charges and length of stay for a patient may be much higher than the average and median if the patient has complications or a longer recovery time. Learn more about hospital charges. Maxmium
