Annotation

The percentage of claims that are S-CHIP Encounter: original and adjustment, and paid where patient status is not "Still a patient" and the discharge date is missing

Specification

STEP 1: Active non-duplicate IP records during DQ report month

Define the IP records universe at the header level that satisfy the following criteria:

1. Reporting Period for the filename = DQ report month

2. CLAIM-STATUS-CATEGORY is not equal to "F2" or is missing

3. CLAIM-DENIED-INDICATOR is not equal to "0" or is missing

4. TYPE-OF-CLAIM is not equal to "Z" or is missing

5. CLAIM-STATUS is not equal to ("26","026","87","087","542","585","654") or is missing

6. No Header Duplicates: Duplicates are dropped at the header-level, if the following four data elements are the same: ICN-ORIG, ICN-ADJ, ADJUDICATION-DATE, and ADJUSTMENT-IND.

STEP 2: S-CHIP Encounter: Original and Adjustment, Paid Claims

Of the claims that meet the criteria from STEP 1, further restrict them by the following criteria:

1. TYPE-OF-CLAIM = "C"

STEP 3: Patient status is not "Still a Patient"

Of the claims that meet the criteria from STEP 2, further restrict them by the following criteria:

1. PATIENT-STATUS is not equal to "30"

2. PATIENT-STATUS is not missing

STEP 4: Missing discharge date

Of the claims from STEP 3, select records where:

1. DISCHARGE-DATE is missing

STEP 5: Calculate percentage

Divide the number of claims from STEP 4 by the number of claims from STEP 3
