Information on ethnicity was provided by California and used to code RACE beginning in 1995. The variable HISPANIC_X was retained on the HCUP databases beginning in 1998.
There are a small number of discharges with undocumented values in HISPANIC_X that are not considered valid by the data source.

Maryland (SID)
Beginning in 1993, Maryland reported Hispanic ethnicity as a separate variable. If patient ethnicity was coded as Spanish/Hispanic origin, patient race was set to Hispanic (RACE = 3) during HCUP processing.
Prior to 1993, Maryland did not report Hispanic ethnicity as a separate variable or category of race. Hispanic ethnicity (RACE = 3) is not coded in the 1988-1992 HCUP Maryland data. The source documentation available for Maryland did not indicate which race code(s) were used for Hispanic ethnicity.

Massachusetts (SID and SEDD)
Beginning October 2014, Massachusetts uses the full list of standard codes from the CDC ethnicity code set and those listed below: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/dvs/Race_Ethnicity_CodeSet.pdf
Small numbers of Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders (less than 1.7%) were included in "Invalid" in the 2006-2008 Massachusetts SEDD.
Small number of Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders (less than 1%) were included in "Invalid" in the 2006-2008 Massachusetts SID.
Beginning October 2006, Massachusetts significantly changed how race and ethnicity are reported. The information is reported in seven separate fields (Race1, Race2, RaceOther, Ethnicity1, Ethnicity2, EthnicityOther, and Hispanic Indicator). The data elements RaceOther and EthnicityOther are sparsely populated and were not retained on the HCUP files. The remaining fields were retained as follows:
RACE_X contains the concatenated values of Race1 and Race2. RACE_X = Race1 | Race2
Beginning 2006, Hispanic_X contains the Hispanic Indicator values. Beginning 2013,
Hispanic_X contains the concatenated values of Hispanic Indicator, Ethnicity1, and Ethnicity2.
Hispanic_X = Hispanic Indicator | Ethnicity1 | Ethnicity2

In the middle of 2007, Nebraska hospitals changed the coding of race for Whites and Native Americans.
- Prior to June 2007, a value of 1 in RACE_X indicated the patient was White and a value of 5 indicated the patient was Native American.
- Beginning in June 2007, a value of 1 in RACE_X indicated Native American and a value of 5 indicated the patient was White.
Due to an error in HCUP data processing for the partial year 2007 and 2008-2010, RACE_X for values 1 and 5 were incorrectly mapped into the uniform variable RACE and misidentified Whites and American Indians. Beginning with 2011 data, the RACE data element correctly identifies Whites and American Indians.
Race is coded on only 8% of Nebraska discharges in 2005. Nebraska informed HCUP that RACE values are not consistent with coding guidelines.

Beginning in 1993. New Jersey reported Hispanic ethnicity as a separate variable. If patient ethnicity was coded as Hispanic (Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Central or South American, Other or Unknown Hispanic), patient race was set to Hispanic (RACE = 3) during HCUP processing.
Prior to 1993. New Jersey reported Hispanic ethnicity as a category of race. If New Jersey reported patient race as Hispanic, HCUP assigned patient race as Hispanic (RACE = 3).

From 1998-2002 patient's race (RACE and RACE_X) was set to missing for records from South Carolina freestanding surgery centers because the data was not reliable. Beginning with 2003, race information is retained in RACE_X and RACE on all ambulatory surgery records. Analysts should examine facility-specific frequencies before using the data.

Utah (SID)
For 2015-2017, RACE has been dropped from the Utah file. The source supplied field, RACE_X, remains available.
For 2012, a large hospital system stopped the collection of information on Hispanic ethnicity of the patient and just collected information on the patient's race. We recommend checking hospital-level statistics before using RACE or HISPANIC_X. For 2013-2014, the hospital system continued this practice. All records for hospitals included in this hospital system have had RACE values set to missing for 2013-2014. Original hospital RACE values are contained in RACE_X.

Race and ethnicity information is available on the Wisconsin SEDD beginning with 2005 data.
Race and ethnicity were available on the 2004 SASD, so any records in the 2004 SEDD that originated in the Wisconsin Ambulatory Surgery file will include information on race and ethnicity.
