This project is designed to develop and validate a predictive model that is a useful benchmarking and quality of care assessment tool based on International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9), diagnoses and procedures. This model, the ICD-9-Based Illness Severity Score (ICISS), was developed from the Agency for Health Care Policy Research's Health Care Utilization Project database and is used to predict hospital survival, hospital length of stay, and hospital charges of injured patients admitted to University of North Carolina Hospitals. The study also compared the outcome predictions of ICISS with those of the long-established diagnosis-related groups (DRG) and the 3M product APR-DRG systems.
