Comments

USER NOTE: THIS DATA ELEMENT WAS PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS 'INTERMEDIATE CARE DAY COUNT'. FOR TOS = 5 (INTERMEDIATE CARE FACILITY FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH INTELLECTUAL DISABLITIES - ICF-IID), VALUE IS USUALLY >= 0. FOR A SMALL NUMBER OF CLAIMS, VALUE MAY BE < 0. THIS IS BECAUSE SOME LONG-TERM CARE SERVICES ARE PAID PROSPECTIVELY (E.G. AT THE BEGINNING OF A MONTH) AND MSIS ADJUSTMENT RECORDS MAY HAVE VALUE < 0, WHICH CAN PRODUCE A FINAL RESULT AFTER ADJUSTMENT WITH VALUE < 0. FOR OTHER TYPES OF SERVICE (TOS NOT = 5), VALUE = 0.

SOURCE: MSIS CLAIMS FILE: 'ICF-MR-DAYS'.

EDIT-RULES: MAX VALUE IS EDITED TO VALUE <= 998. IF MSIS VALUE = 99999 OR 88888, MSIS VALUE IS RESET TO VALUE = 0. IF MEDICARE CROSSOVER CLAIM,RECODE VALUE TO 0.
