Detailed charges are submitted charges that pertain to a specified revenue center or group of revenue centers. Beginning in 2005, charges associated with specific revenue centers stored in REVCDn are retained in REVCHGn. Charges specific to a group of revenue centers are stored in CHGn. Prior to 2005, both types of detailed charges were stored in the HCUP data element CHGn. Detailed charges (CHGn) are retained as provided by the data source, including cents and negative values. Zero charges are retained as a zero and are NOT set to missing (.). Charges greater than $9,999,999 are set to invalid (.A). No edit checks are performed on this data element during HCUP processing. |
