The objectives of this thesis are to sum up the possible applications of DRG system, to describe the calculation of indicators needed for health care payment in 2012 and to suggest some improvements to the algorithm to enhance the quality of data processing in the years ahead. The first part of this thesis is theoretical and it includes especially the history of the DRG classification system and an explanation of the basic concepts and the calculation methods. In the second part there is the description of the data file, which was used for the calculation of the inpatient care payments for 2012, its processing (specifically the determination of the relative weights of DRG) and the possibility to automate the whole solution.
