Abstract :
In the context of the new round of medical and health reform, in order to alleviate the problem of “difficult to see a doctor and
expensive to see a doctor,” the state focuses on reducing the cost of medical services, so it puts forward the calculation and
method research of medical costs. The purpose of this study is to calculate and predict the cost of medical services in a DRGoriented integrated environment. In this study, activity-based costing and weighted moving average methods are used. First,
basic data of medical services are collected, then all medical activities are confirmed and all service costs are collected, then a
cost database is established, and a calculation model of medical costs is designed. Finally, calculation suggestions and
optimization methods are put forward by analyzing the calculated data. The experimental results show that the actual demand
of drugs predicted by the general moving average method is relatively insufficient, with the maximum error of 41%, the
minimum of 5%, and the average error of 19.8%; the maximum error of drug demand predicted by the weighted moving
average method is 24%, the minimum is 2%, and the average is 15.4%. It can be concluded that the prediction effect of the
weighted moving average method is better than that of the ordinary moving average method, which plays a good and effective
role in the prediction of medical cost. The activity-based costing method is more detailed and organized for the cost calculation
and classification of medical services. It provides a certain value for the effective management and control of medical service cost.
