NIS Description of Data Elements

DISPUB92 - Disposition of patient, UB92 coding

Documentation Sections:

DISPUB92 indicates the disposition of the patient at discharge and uses the same coding as the patient status data element on the UB-92 claim form.

DISPUB92 has more detailed categories for transfers and Home Health Care than the HCUP data element DISPUniform. Some states do not provide enough detail in the coding of the discharge status to accurately code DISPUB92. For these states, the data element DISPUB92 is not available. DISPUniform is available for all states. DISP_X retains the disposition of patient as provided by the data source.

HCUP excludes records that contain the UB-92 discharge disposition of "Still a patient" (value 30) or "Admitted as an inpatient to this hospital" (value 09) with the following exception. Prior to 2005 data, records with the discharge disposition of "Admitted as an inpatient to this hospital" (value 09) were retained in the HCUP SASD and SEDD.

DISP_X is not available on the HCUP Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS).

DISPUniform is coded directly from DISPUB92. In 2001, records with the disposition "All Other" were recoded to "Missing" (DISPUB92 = .) in the HCUP databases. For all other years, records with the disposition "09" were considered to have a different definition, "Admitted as an inpatient", and were rejected from the HCUP databases.

DISPUB92 is missing on all California discharges. The data source does not provide sufficient detail to accurately assign the HCUP variable DISPUB92.

Indiana

Beginning with 2005 data, Indiana does not provide enough detail in the coding of DISP_X to code the HCUP variable DISPUB92.

Due to an error in HCUP processing for data year 2003, twenty-three records with the discharge disposition of still a patient (DISP_X=31) were retained. These records are usually excluded from the HCUP databases.

Information on the disposition of the patient was provided in two fields: discharge status and transfer destination. If the discharge status indicated a transfer, then DISP_X is assigned using both the discharge status (value 3) and the transfer destination (values 1-8) to create a two-digit value 31-38. For non-transfers, DISP_X contains one digit discharge status. DISPUniform is coded directly from DISPUB92.
