This seminar by tariff updates provides a compact, practice-ready overview of the key changes in SwissDRG Version 16.0, the CHOP catalogue 2027 and the medical coding manual 2027. It is aimed at coding specialists, medical controllers and other professionals from hospitals, practices and insurers who apply these tariff systems in daily hospital operations.
The programme opens with the updated coding manual, the CHOP catalogue and revised rules and definitions, before turning to SwissDRG Version 16.0: its development priorities, relevant adjustments, the CCL matrix, additional fee items and high-cost medications. Catherine Niederer-Addor contributes an expert input session on various aspects of the revision, followed by discussion.
