Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Medicare Part A, also known as hospital insurance, is paid under the DRG (Diagnosis-Related Group) system. This means that hospitals are paid a fixed amount for each patient's stay, based on their diagnosis and other factors. Medicare Part B, C, and D are not paid under the DRG system.
