Dear Mr. Goginashvili

Sorry about our delayed answer. It is correct that we have been developing a grouper software based on the Nordic DRG framework. We
have shared it within the Nordic collaboration network, with the intention that this will be the Nordic standard grouper implementation for the coming years.  We are not planning on publishing as for freeware or for download ourselves, but will do so through
the Nordic Casemix Centre. Our experience is that providing guidance two new users is quite time consuming, and we don't have enough people to provide help and support to external users. We therefore stick to the principle that the software will be maintained
and eventually published only through the Nordic Casemix Centre.

Best regards,

Fredrik A.S.R. Hanssen

Dear
Mr. Hanssen,

I would like to kindly address you from the Ministry of Labour, Health and Social Affairs of Georgia regarding NordDRG grouper software.

As we are informed by Martti Virtanen, Norwegian Board of Health has produced a new grouper that may be available as open source product. We are interested
in getting more information about the availability of the grouper and the conditions under which this can be acquired. We are also interested to get more information about technical parameters/requirements which are needed for adoption the grouper software
and possible technical support from your side if this might be needed.

Thank you in advance for cooperation and support.

Kind regards,
