2021 APR-DRG tariffs released in Belgium

On January 19, 2021, tariffs for APR-DRG groups, as well as the distribution of total amount within DRG among all specialists and services which are provided by them, were updated for 2021.

Since 2019, several low-cost and simple procedures are reimbursed not via individual INAMI codes but APR-DRG groups. The new hospital funding system called “Low Variability Care” covers 57 APR-DRG groups. Except for the updated tariffs, no other changes were introduced within the Belgian DRG system.
