For SK-DRG coders

From discharge summary to DRG codes in seconds.

DRG. reads the clinical documentation, proposes principal and secondary diagnoses and procedures, and shows why it chose every single code. You review and confirm.

Clinical documentationDischarge summary

Male, 54, elective admission for a right inguinal hernia with no signs of incarceration. Laparoscopic TAPP repair with mesh implant performed under general anaesthesia with ETI. Uneventful recovery, discharged on post-op day 2.

Case understanding

  • TAPP = transabdominal preperitoneal repair
  • No obstruction or gangrene

    K40.90Unilateral inguinal hernia, without obstruction or gangrene
  2. Principal procedure91 % confidence

Missing from documentation: Hernia type (direct / indirect) is not stated in the operative report.

Why

Coding today is slow, manual and thankless.

Every inpatient case has to be translated from the language of doctors into the language of code lists. Accurately and on time — because reimbursement depends on it.

  • Thousands of pages of rules

    The ICD-10 classification, the procedure catalogue and the coding guidelines change every year. Finding the right code takes longer than the decision itself.

  • Notes written for clinicians

    Free text, abbreviations, photos and scans. What matters for grouping is often hidden in a single sentence of the operative report.

  • Mistakes cost money

    A missed secondary diagnosis or the wrong principal procedure means lower reimbursement or a case rejected at audit.

How it works

Four steps from documentation to a finished proposal.

No forms, no new habits. You work with the documents you already have.

  1. Add the documentation

    Paste text from the hospital system, or drop in a screenshot, a photo or a PDF.

    • Discharge summaries
    • Operative reports
    • Screenshots and scans
  2. DRG. understands the case

    It recognises the document type, expands abbreviations and finds every finding and procedure that matters.

    • Slovak clinical terminology
    • Common abbreviations and typos
    • Diagnoses, procedures, complications
  3. Get a proposed coding

    Principal and secondary diagnoses, principal and secondary procedures — ranked, each with a confidence level.

    • Codes from the current code lists
    • Confidence for every code
    • Flags for missing information
  4. Review and confirm

    For every code you see the reasoning, the passage from the coding rules and the sentence in the documentation it came from. The decision is always yours.

    • Reasoning with a cited source
    • Highlighted in the original text
    • Accept or reject in one click

Transparency

No black box.

A proposal you can’t follow is worthless. That’s why DRG. shows the whole path — from the sentence in the notes to the rule in the guidelines.

  • Reasoning for every code
  • A link to the exact passage of the current coding rules
  • The sentence in the documentation the code came from, highlighted
  • A confidence level, so you know where to look closer
  • The final decision is always made by a person

Benefits

More time to review. Less time searching.

DRG. doesn’t make decisions for you. It prepares them so you can make them quickly and with confidence.

  • A case in under 20 seconds

    You get a proposed coding within 20 seconds of adding the documentation. Your time goes into review, not into leafing through catalogues.

  • Every code explained

    Each proposal comes with its reasoning and the exact passage from the coding rules. At audit, you can defend every decision.

  • Nothing important slips through

    It points out secondary diagnoses and complications that raise case severity and affect DRG grouping.

  • Gaps in documentation

    When information needed for correct grouping is missing, it tells you before the case is submitted.

  • Speaks Slovak medicine

    Abbreviations, clinical shorthand, typos and text from photos. Nothing needs to be retyped or cleaned up.

  • All cases in one place

    Find work in progress by title, text or code, and come back to any case at any time.

Who it’s for

For everyone involved in getting a hospital stay reimbursed.

  • Less searching

    DRG coders

    A faster first draft, less searching and more certainty on borderline cases.

  • Complete notes

    Physicians and heads of department

    Immediate feedback on what the documentation lacks for correct grouping.

  • Defensible codes

    Controlling and audit

    The justification for every code in one place — ready for an insurer’s review.

  • Fair reimbursement

    Hospital management

    Reimbursement that reflects the care actually delivered, and fewer rejected cases.

Pricing

You pay by the number of patients.

The price depends on how many inpatients you code per month. A smaller hospital doesn’t pay for capacity it won’t use, and a larger one gets a price that fits its volume.

A rough estimate is enough — we’ll tailor the quote to your numbers.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is DRG.?

DRG. is an assistant for coding inpatient cases under the Slovak SK-DRG system. From clinical documentation — a discharge summary or an operative report — it proposes principal and secondary diagnoses (ICD-10, Slovak edition) and procedures, and justifies each proposal with a reference to its source.

Will DRG. replace coders?

No. DRG. prepares a proposal and the supporting evidence; the final decision always rests with a person. The coder sees why a code was proposed and accepts or rejects it in one click.

What documents can I add?

Text copied from the hospital information system, screenshots, photos and PDFs. DRG. understands Slovak clinical terminology and common abbreviations, so the documentation needs no clean-up.

What are the proposed codes based on?

On the current code lists and methodological documents for SK-DRG — the Slovak ICD-10, the national procedure catalogue and the coding guidelines. For every code you can see the specific passage the proposal relies on.

How long does one case take?

Under 20 seconds from adding the documentation. Most of your time goes into reviewing the proposal, not preparing it.

What if something is missing from the documentation?

DRG. flags information that is needed for correct grouping but missing — for example an unspecified condition type or missing intensive-care data.

How will patient data be protected?

Only authorised users from your hospital will have access to DRG. How it is deployed and how data is handled is agreed with each hospital individually, in line with its internal policies.

How will DRG. be delivered?

As a secured application with sign-in for your staff. We are finalising the exact form of deployment together with our first hospitals.

How much does DRG. cost?

The price depends on how many inpatients your hospital codes per month. Send us a rough number of inpatient stays per month and we’ll prepare a tailored quote.
