Article summary

Object Description

One record per patient-period during which the patient had an active membership or was covered by an MMR record; the most reliable demographic component values for each period are obtained (or imputed) from membership and/or MMR records. For months with multiple MMR records, the most recent ("final action") record is used.

Metadata

  • Table Name: ursa.so_ursa_hcc_pat_001
  • Layer: SYNTHETIC_OBJECT
  • Object Type: Complex Timeline
  • Temporal Class: Interval (Timeline)
  • Case ID: Patient ID
  • Interval Start Date: Period Start Date
  • Interval End Date: Period End Date
  • Primary Key: Patient ID, Period Start Date, Period End Date

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.)
