| HOW TO PICK A VERSION |
| US Federal (aka CMS or HCFA) DRG versions are released in October of
every year. Version 3 (the first version we support) was released in
October of 1985. So if you are using calendar years,
1/1/2001 - 9/30/2001 would be covered by version 18 and 10/1/2001
through 9/30/2002 would be covered by version 19. And so on. |

| VB-DRG |
| VB-DRG is our Visual BASIC DRG Grouper. VB-DRG is a Visual BASIC form which collects the
data needed to assign a DRG and then calls our Grouper DLL
with that data. VB-DRG then displays the results on the screen (but does not save them anywhere).
VB-DRG features interactive labelling of ICD9cm codes via our ICD9cm labelling DLL. |
| VB-DRG can support multiple DRG versions. VB-DRG automatically detects the presence of any and
all masks files and then presents the user with a list of versions supported by your particular
installation. If you want to keep your VB-DRG application current, you will need to upgrade
every year by buying a new Grouper DLL (the price of which includes a new masks file). You will
also need a new ICD9cm Labels data file to keep up to date. |
Included in the VB-DRG purchase price is
- VB-DRG application
- Current Grouper DLL
- DRG Masks file of your choice
- ICD9cm DLL
- ICD9cm Labels data file
If you want to interactively group records and then store the results, look at
Access-DRG. |

| CGI-DRG |
| CGI-DRG stands for "Common Gateway Interface DRG Grouper." CGI is the standard most webservers use
to communicate with scripts. CGI-DRG is intended to be installed by your IT department on an internal
server. CGI-DRG provides a simple HTML form into which any user with a browser and web access
to your server can fill in and get back a DRG, as well as indications of which codes were used in the
grouping and the DRG's description, MDC, weight and mean. We have tested CGI-DRG under GNU-Linux and
Apache, so we expect our ANSI C source to compile and run under just about any UN*X and just about
any web server. We have tested CGI-DRG under NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 running IIS. |

| ACCESS-DRG |
| Access-DRG is a Microsoft Access application which collects the data needed to assign a DRG and
stores that data, to be grouped by our Grouper DLL on demand. Access-DRG features interactive
labelling of ICD9cm codes via our ICD9cm labelling DLL. |
Included in the Access-DRG purchase price is
- Access-DRG application
- Current Grouper DLL
- DRG Masks file of your choice
- ICD9cm DLL
- ICD9cm Labels data file
If you want to interactively group records but do not want to store the results, look at

| MAY WE TAKE YOUR ORDER? |
| As of October, 2009, we have a shiny new on-line shopping cart. We strongly
recommend that you use it, if you can. You can use the shopping cart by clicking on the
big blue buttons above. |
| If you use the on-line shopping cart, you get
your software immediately and directly. |
| If you do not use the shopping cart, your order
will have to be filled manually, which takes time, and will be emailed to you, which
often leads to interference by spam filters and firewalls. |
| You can use the on-line
shopping cart if you have a company credit card; we use Paypal to process on-line
purchases, but Paypay does not require you to have or use a Paypal account. |
| If your company works on a purchase order basis, you may want to
fax us a purchase order to (203) 481-4898, containing the same product information as
the form below. If you would like to order on-line, but are sure that you cannot use
our on-line shopping cart, please fill in the form below and submit it. |
| (If you are reading the PDF version of this document, then please consider copying the form
and pasting it into a email or printing it out and faxing it or mailing it.) |
| |
| If you don't get an email acknowledgement from us within 2 business days,
there may have been some technical problem so
please let us know at
grouper@drggroupers.com. |
