Abstract：Objective To improve the ability of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) medical service by retrospectively describing and analyzing the clinical diagnosis and treatment characteristics of discharged patients treated mainly by TCM in a hospital.Methods Discharged patients were divided into the TCM dominant group and the non-TCM dominant group for analysis and comparison, according to the requirement of national performance assessment indicators.Results The differences in population distribution and cost between the two groups were statistically significant (P＜0.05); the number of discharged patients and the proportion of TCM dominant patients were higher for diseases such as posterior circulation ischemia, malignant tumor support treatment and lumbar intervertebral disc herniation; the proportion of DRG group diseases was high, such as alzheimer′s disease or other chronic brain function lesions, coronary atherosclerosis without complications and concomitant diseases.Conclusion Discharged patients treated mainly by TCM had a significant cost advantage, but the average hospitalization days were longer; the diseases with high proportion and high number of TCM dominant discharged patients can be candidate diseases of TCM superiority. It is necessary to actively explore the DRG management scheme in accordance with the characteristics of TCM therapy.
