Topic: MS-DRG System Url
Tim Dunnington (May 16 2018 at 22:23):
I've been looking for a system url for MS-DRG codes and I'm not having any luck finding one. Does anyone happen to know if there is an existing system url, or even an oid, for DRGs?

what's an MS-DRG? got a reference?
Tim Dunnington (May 24 2018 at 15:50):
Hey Grahame, I do: https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Medicare-Fee-for-Service-Payment/AcuteInpatientPPS/MS-DRG-Classifications-and-Software.html

Yes, that's what it's for
Grahame Grieve (May 24 2018 at 17:54):
so the best would be to get CMS to define a permalink. That's been difficult in the past. @Ted Klein @Rob Hausam has this come up in cda or v2?
Rob Hausam (May 24 2018 at 18:12):
I'm not sure if there has been discussion/use of it in V2 or CDA. I do see a number of 'drg' related OIDs in the registry, but in a brief scan it's not obvious to me if one or more of them cover this or not. @Ted Klein probably has more details.
