Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC)
We calculate hospitalization expenses of patients hospitalized in a general ward by diagnosis procedure combination (DPC). DPC is a system to calculate diagnosis and treatment actions (e.g., medicines, tests and X-rays, etc.) as a fixed payment per one day of hospitalization according to your illness (diagnosis classification) instead of volume calculation that accumulates and totals diagnosis and treatment actions.
Clinical Pathways
Clinical pathways summarize the schedule of patients for the treatment and examination of their illnesses. These are made for each treatment and examination. They explain in detail the standard content and schedule of the examinations, surgeries, treatments, post-surgery rehabilitation, foods and baths by day from when a patient is hospitalized. The basic schedule during hospitalization is written in detail. This means that there are advantages such as the patient being able to know the schedule and being able to reduce anxieties about life while hospitalized. Nevertheless, the standard pathway may vary depending on the condition of the patient. In addition, there are also treatments for which pathways have yet to be prepared.
