To re-iterate: I don't see any indication that more than 20% is feasible, regardless of priority.
I provided all our code, mapping tables, etc. If you can suggest improvements to our methods, please do. -- Dan ________________________________ From: Al'ona Furmanchuk [furmanc...@icnanotox.org] Sent: Tuesday, September 18, 2018 12:38 PM To: Mei Liu Cc: Dan Connolly; ,; Sravani Chandaka; Xing Song Subject: Re: PCORNet CDM insurance payer mapping by KUMC for next-D Top critical. As I was asked on today's call I am submitting ticket now. I will do visuals for data elements I am asking + I will be very verbal on importance on insurance mapping for NextD. The focus of NextD is on effect of ACA on health outcomes. It is only possible to study if insurance of person using for health services is known.

Alona can probably comment on how critical it is.

I thought perhaps that 20% was before some recent work in this area, but the most recent EDC report we submitted to PCORNet was generated Aug 2. Table IVC. Missing or Unknown Values, Required Tables shows 80.4% missing for PAYER_TYPE_PRIMARY and 100% missing for PAYER_TYPE_SECONDARY. The internal ticket for this work was #4867. A July 3 comment says "Point of interest, payer is specified for about 20% of patient encounters". I don't see any indication that this was insufficient nor that more was feasible. Ticket 4867 included work in both i2p-transform and HERON ETL. The i2p-transform work included payer_map.csv<https://github.com/kumc-bmi/i2p-transform/blob/master/curated_data/payer_map.csv>. For more details, see: https://github.com/kumc-bmi/i2p-transform/pull/104 https://github.com/kumc-bmi/i2p-transform/commit/bf191f70fa0b0393f0c3dd0977ce124fd8fdc28b The HERON part was an insurance_and_payer_4687 branch that landed July 9. https://github.com/kumc-bmi/heron/commit/5072746bf1070ce73042b3138f0accd0e5ce87d7 -- Dan
