Such regulations may include the following: (1) A classification of inpatient treatments by diagnosis-related groups and a similar classification of outpatient treatment. (2) A methodology for classifying specific treatments within such groups. (3) An appropriate weighting factor for each such diagnosis-related group which reflects the relative resources used by a facility of a uniformed service with respect to treatments classified within that group compared to treatments classified within other groups. (4) An appropriate method for calculating or estimating the annual per capita costs of providing comprehensive health care services to members of the uniformed services on active duty and covered beneficiaries. |
