Associations of Chinese diagnosis-related group system with low-value coronary revascularisation: an interrupted time series analysis
This study suggested that C-DRG policy achieved at least short-term success in reducing use of low-value coronary revascularisation without evidence of decreasing high-value coronary revascularisation services. These results can support policymakers in reducing low-value care in China and other countries that use similar systems.
