报告内容摘要：
Based on the report of the Central Social Insurance Medical Council concerning the 2002 Revision of the Medical Service Fee Schedule, a new per diem payment system based on the Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) was introduced in Japan in April 2003. Beginning in April 2004, the system was gradually extended to general hospitals that satisfied certain required conditions. This was one of the largest and most important revisions of the payment system since the Second World War. One of the major purposes of the DPC-based payment system is to reduce the length of hospital stay. However, because of the recent introduction of the system, sufficient
evaluations of the system have not been done. In this paper, we present our analysis of the effects of the new inclusive payment system on the length of hospital stay following cataract operations (DPC Category Code: 020110) in Japan. Data collected from 5 general hospitals before and after the introduction of the system were analyzed. The number of patients was 2,533. The results of the study strongly suggest the necessity of revising the payment system to more efficiently use medical resources in the future.
