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)
    • Primary Plan Attributee Provider ID
    • Empirical Attributee Primary Care Individual Provider ID
    • Empirical Attributee Primary Care Provider Group Provider ID
    • Primary Payor ID -- The internal database identifier (used, e.g., for joins and primary keys) for the Primary Payor. (See also [URSA-CORE] Primary Payor)
    • Primary Plan ID
  • Operations Support Fields

    • Patient Operational ID -- The user-facing value used by staff used to uniquely identify the Patient in their administrative systems and/or day-to-day operations. (See also [URSA-CORE] Patient)
  • Patient Fields

    • Is Patient Alive
    • Patient Date of Birth -- The patient's date of birth. On the Patients Natural Object, this field reflects the "best" known value for the patient available from all data sources; on other Natural Objects, e.g., MMR Member-Months, the value faithfully reflects the date of birth found on that particular type of record in the source data.
    • Patient Age Integer -- Patient age, expressed as an integer, as of a reference date or interval.
    • NCQA Race Code -- The code used to identify race in official NCQA measure submissions; e.g., 1 = White, 2 = Black or African American, 3 = American Indian and Alaska Native, 4 = Asian, etc.
    • NCQA Ethnicity Code -- The code used to identify ethnicity in official NCQA measure submissions; e.g., 1 = Hispanic or Latino, 2 = Not Hispanic or Latino, 3 = Unknown Ethnicity.
    • NCQA Gender Code -- The code used to identify gender in official NCQA measure submissions; e.g., M = male; F = female.
    • Is Patient Sex Female -- Indicates the patient's sex is female. On the Patients Natural Object, this field reflects the "best" known value for the patient available from all data sources; on other Natural Objects, e.g., MMR Member-Months, the value faithfully reflects the patient sex documented on that particular type of record in the source data.
    • Is Patient Sex Male -- Indicates the patient's sex is male. On the Patients Natural Object, this field reflects the "best" known value for the patient available from all data sources; on other Natural Objects, e.g., MMR Member-Months, the value faithfully reflects the patient sex documented on that particular type of record in the source data.

    • UW HIP ADI Quintile Category -- The UW HIP Area Deprivation Index National Percentile grouped into 5 levels, each spanning 20 percentile points (ADI 1 is percentile scores from 1 to 20 while ADI 5 is scores from 81 to 100). Higher scores indicate more deprivation, so ADI 1 is the least deprived while ADI 5 is the most deprived. Quintiles are frequently used in health research. They give larger sample sizes per group and are easier to plot and interpret. Quintiles also carry less information and group more dissimilar patients. Quintiles are good for descriptive analyses while the original percentile measure is preferable for predictive modeling. (See also [URSA-CORE] UW HIP Area Deprivation Index National Percentile)
