Since the number and amount of health services tried to be given in health institutions
cannot be measured, it cannot be charged as the remuneration of services in other
sectors. For this reason, health services should be evaluated, coded, and grouped on
the basis of disease, and should be charged within the framework of these codes and
groupings. In the light of all these evaluations, the aim of this study is to provide
a fair and quality distribution of the health services provided to the community, to
provide a fair reimbursement system to the health service providers in return for
the health services provided and to provide the maximum quality, the least cost of
the health services provided and the reimbursement in health institutions. Diagnose
Related Groups (DRGs) system. One of the most important issues in the DRGs system
is the process of determining costs clearly, accurately, objectively and up-to-date. This
process should be determined not only by hospitals but by the participation of all
stakeholders in health services.
