Based upon a single fiscal year of Medicare IPPS claims data, the following fields are included in a comma delimited text format:

• Provider ID
• Base MS-DRG Code
• Cases
• Days
• Charges
• Reimbursement

Only instances of more than 10 claims are reported in compliance with CMS data release policies. Only claims from FY2006 (for FY2008 MS-DRG), FY2007 (for FY2008 or FY2009 MS-DRG) or Q3 FY2008 (for FY2008 or FY2009 MS-DRG) data are available for this file. Claims for other years may be available grouped under MS-DRG as part of a custom data project.
