01 / CONTEXT Why this matters

Hospitals don't need more raw CMS documents.

They need faster visibility into what changed, which DRGs are affected, and where reimbursement impact may follow.

CMS adjusts MS-DRG relative weights and payment policy every August, effective October 1. Each change multiplies against a hospital's base rate — and then against volume. The documents are public; the signal inside them is not.

Healthcare Informatics Hub replaces the newsletter-and-osmosis workflow with a structured, versioned, source-traceable view: every DRG, every fiscal year, every delta — with its originating CMS or Federal Register document one click away.

02 / PLATFORM What the platform does

Look up your hospital. Trace every number. Plan the next fiscal year.

01

Look up your hospital

Type any of 3,060 US IPPS hospitals by name or CCN and see the projected FY2026 → FY2027 operating payment delta — with a receipt showing wage index, transfer-adjusted CMI, and case count.

  • 3,060 hospitals indexed
  • Per-hospital receipt with sources
  • Validated within 0.07 pp of CMS

02

Trace the source

Every DRG weight, every hospital input, every delta links back to its originating CMS or Federal Register document — so finance, audit, and operations see the same citation.

  • Citations to CMS & Federal Register
  • Rule number, table, and page
  • Versioned by fiscal year
Open DRG Search →
03

Estimate the impact

Modeled reimbursement effect at the DRG, hospital, and aggregate level — ready for the board memo, the budget variance review, or the finance workbook.

  • Hospital-level FY27 exposure
  • DRG-level $ impact by case volume
  • CSV export for finance & BI
