Published Fields
Data Model Keys
- Patient ID -- The internal database identifier (used, e.g., for joins and primary keys) for the patient. This value is typically mastered, i.e., all records for the same patient, regardless of the source data system from which that record originated, should have the same Patient ID value. (Note that while the mastered Patient ID value might resemble a local identifier used in one of the upstream data sources, this does not indicate any special priority of that source system in determining the characteristics of the patient.) (See also [URSA-CORE] Patient)
Date Fields
- Period Start Date
- Period End Date
- Continuous Medical Claim Data Coverage Episode Start Date
- Continuous Medical Claim Data Coverage Episode End Date
- Continuous Pharmacy Claim Data Coverage Episode Start Date
- Continuous Pharmacy Claim Data Coverage Episode End Date
Metadata Fields
- Count Distinct Data Sources -- For a given patient (or other type of entity) and time period, the count of distinct data sources contributing some degree of data coverage for that entity during that time period. (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Medical Claim Data Coverage
- Is Institutional Claim Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for institutional claims from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Institutional Claim Paid Amount Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for institutional claims, with plan paid amounts populated at least at the claim header level, from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Institutional Claim Service Line Item Paid Amount Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for institutional claims, with plan paid amounts populated at the claim service line item level, from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (Having line-level paid amounts allows finer-grained analyses than those possible when paid amounts are only available at the header-level.) (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Professional Claim Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for professional claims from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Professional Claim Paid Amount Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for professional claims, with plan paid amounts populated at least at the claim header level, from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Professional Claim Service Line Item Paid Amount Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for professional claims, with plan paid amounts populated at the claim service line item level, from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (Having line-level paid amounts allows finer-grained analyses than those possible when paid amounts are only available at the header-level.) (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Pharmacy Claim Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for pharmacy claims from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
- Is Pharmacy Claim Paid Amount Data Coverage -- Indicates data coverage for pharmacy claims, with plan paid amounts populated, from at least one data source for the patient and time period specified on the record. (See also [URSA-CORE] Data Coverage)
