- (1) When a patient is transferred between hospitals, the transferring hospital is paid on the basis of the number of inpatient days spent at the transferring hospital multiplied by the per diem inter-hospital transfer payment rate.
- (2) The per diem inter-hospital transfer payment rate = the DRG payment divided by the geometric mean length of stay for the DRG. The geometric mean length of stay is reported in the DRG tables on the Division’s website.
- (3) Payment to the transferring hospital will not exceed the DRG payment.
- (4) The final discharging hospital receives the full DRG payment.
