Resource Intensity Weight (RIW)-Adjusted Length of Stay (LOS) and Costs for Each Case Mix Group (CMG)*
| LOS/cost | CMG | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 356 (n = 134) | 579 (n = 100) | 580 (n = 206) | 581 (n = 59) | 876 (n = 32) | |

↵* All values are calculated using LSMEANS from within the generalized linear model procedure and reflect group averages “controlled for” RIW. p value is Bonferroni corrected.
CMG 356 = nontraumatic femoral fracture, CMG 579 = nonmalignant major gynecologic procedures, CMG 580 = other major gynecologic procedures, CMG 581 = procedures for endometriosis, CMG 876 = multiple significant trauma with lower extremity fractures.
