Improved management of hospital-acquired infections with DRG-based payment system: an interrupted time‑series analysis
These findings suggest that the implementation of the DRG system may contribute to improving HAI management, with notable reductions in the HAI incidence rate over time. Our study serves as a reference for other developing countries facing similar healthcare challenges, and provides valuable insights for improving healthcare quality and enhancing patient safety.
