Kentucky
Beginning in 2006, please see REVCHGn for detailed charge information. CHGn is no longer included in KY SID.
Detailed charges (CHGn) are associated with identified revenue centers (REVCDn) and units of service (UNITn). For example, CHG1 applies to the revenue center in REVCD1 and the units of service specified in UNIT1. Kentucky reports detailed charges (CHGn) associated with standard UB-92 revenue codes stored in REVCDn. Kentucky does not collapse or redefine ranges of revenue codes.
In addition, prior to data year 2005, information on total charges (revenue center 001) was removed from the detailed charge arrays. (CHGn, REVCDn, and UNITn). Information on total charges is available in the HCUP variables TOTCHG and TOTCHG_X.
Maryland
Beginning in 2006, REVCHGn field includes information about detailed charges associated with the identified revenue centers (REVCDn) and the units of service (UNITn). CHGn is no longer included in the MD SASD files.
Beginning in July 2001, detailed charges (CHGn) are associated with the identified revenue centers (REVCDn) and the units of service (UNITn). For example, CHG1 applies to the revenue center in REVCD1 and the units of service specified in UNIT1.
From January 2001 to June 30, 2001, Maryland supplied eight specific charges without revenue codes or units. To be compatible with the revenue code specific charges and units provided starting in July 2001, revenue codes (REVCDn) were imputed on records in January through June 2001 and units (UNITn) were set to missing (.). Revenue codes in January through June 2001 were assigned as follows:
- CHG1 - Room and Board - REVCD1 set to "101" (All inclusive Room and Board)
- CHG2 - Operating Room - REVCD2 set to "360" (General Classification OR Services)
- CHG3 - Drug - REVCD3 set to "250" (General Classification Pharmacy)
- CHG4 - Radiology - REVCD4 set to "AAA" because diagnostic and therapeutic radiology services use different UB-92 revenue codes.
- CHG5 - Laboratory - REVCD5 set to "300" (General Classification Laboratory)
- CHG6 - Medical Supplies - REVCD6 set to "270" (General Classification Med/Surg Supplies)
- CHG7 - Therapy - REVCD7 set to "BBB" because different types of therapy require different UB-92 revenue codes
- CHG8 - Other - REVCD8 set to "CCC"
From 1995-2000, Maryland supplied eight detailed charges, where the type of charge is explicitly linked to the charge variable. For instance, CHG3 applies to drug charges only. No revenue centers (REVCDn) or units of service (UNITn) are supplied. The following charge categories apply:

For 1993 and 1994, 20 detailed charges are available for Maryland. Detailed charges (CHGn) are associated with the identified revenue centers (REVCDn) and the units of service (UNITn). For example, CHG1 applies to the revenue center in REVCD1 and the units of service specified in UNIT1. See Note for REVCDn for the revenue centers associated with each detailed charge in 1993-1994.

Warning: In 1995, confusion over the mapping of Uniform Billing revenue codes to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit charges (CHG8) and newborn nursery charges (CHG9) caused some hospitals to erroneously place NICU charges (CHG8) under nursery charges (CHG9). This does not affect other years.
New Jersey includes professional fees in several charge categories because professional fees are aggregated within the revenue centers and the fees cannot be separated. There is no documentation available from the data source to determine where professional fees were included.
