Casemix is coming.

Casemix is the term used to describe the types of patients being treated in hospitals. During the 1980s, the main casemix classification adopted in Australia utilised diagnosis related groups (DRGs) and Australian Governments are now moving towards output-based funding of hospitals using DRGs. Changes to hospital funding mechanisms, increased focus on the output or product of hospital services and the availability of more information linking service provision to costs will have an impact on all nurses employed in hospital settings.
