Convert MSDRGs into a "base DRG" and complication level
separate_drgs(drgs, remove_age = FALSE)
| drgs | character vector of MSDRG descriptions, e.g. MSDRGDSC |
|---|---|
| remove_age | logical; if TRUE will remove age descriptions |
a tibble with three columns: msdrg: the input vector, base_msdrg, and msdrg_complication
This function is not robust to different codings of complication in DRG descriptions. If you have a coding other than "W CC" / "W MCC" / "W CC/MCC" / "W/O CC" / "W/O MCC", please file an issue on Github and we'll try to add support for your coding.
