摘要

The report, prepared as part of the Feasibility Study for the InstitutionalPopulation Component (IPC) of National Medical Expenditures Survey Round 3 (NMES3), provides an initial assessment of the feasibility of obtaining Medicare and Medicaid claims data for recipients of long term care sampled for the IPC and of using the claims data to supplement data collected in the survey. The report includes an overview of previous efforts to obtain and merge administrative record data from claims payment systems, describes the types of data that could be collected from claims payment systems, describes the current and proposed Medicare and Medicaid claims databases, and provides an estimate of the level of effort required to obtain claims files and merge them with data collected in the NMES3 IPC Feasibility Study field test.
