DRGs are clusters of cases with similar clinical Attributes and resource requirements. In Ireland, Australian Refined Diagnosis Related Group (AR-DRG) have been in use in Ireland since 2005, in 2016 Version 8.0 was used to group Discharges.

Discharge activity is Examined by type of patient (day patient/in-patient), admission type (elective/emergency/maternity) and hospital group, and by demographic parameters (such as age and sex). Certain issues of relevance to the Irish health care system covered in the report relate to the composition of Discharges by medical card and public/private status. Charges are also analysed by diagnoses, procedures, major Diagnostic categories, and Diagnosis related groups. The analysis is presented at the national level. In 2016 HIPE Discharges were coded using ICD-10-AM/Achi/ACS 8th Edition and grouped into AR-DRG Version 8.0.
