Ambulatory payment classifications (APCs) are a classification system for outpatient services. APCs are similar to DRGs. Both APCs and DRGs cover only the hospital fees, and not the professional fees, associated with a hospital outpatient visit or inpatient stay. DRGs have 497 groups, and APCs have 346 groups. APCs use only ICD-9-CM diagnoses and CPT-4 procedures. Payments for both are based on a weight for each DRG/APC and a rate for the facility. The unit of classification for DRGs is an admission while APCs utilize a visit. The initial variable used in the classification process is the diagnosis for DRGs and the procedure for APCs.
