MedPAR Info

MEDPAR 'R2K' Limited Dataset Record Layout
MedPAR consolidates Inpatient Hospital or Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) claims data from the National Claims History (NCH) files into stay level records.   The accumulation of claims submitted for the period commencing on a beneficiary's date of admission to an inpatient hospital or SNF and ending on the beneficiary’s date of discharge from that hospital or SNF represents one stay.  In the case of a SNF stay where the beneficiary has not yet been discharged and remains a patient, the claims submitted between the admission date to the SNF through the time of the MedPAR file creation, represent one stay. A stay record may represent one or more final action claims. 
NOTE:  Any given MedPAR file represents a static snapshot of a specific stay at the time the data was sourced from NCH.  As such, any given stay record on a specific update of MedPAR DOES NOT NECESSARILY represent the final coding and/or payment information for that stay because if subsequent adjustments to the claims that comprise the stay occur after MedPAR is run, they will not be reflected on the file.

Generally, the amount is calculated by the fi; and represents what was paid to the institutional provider, with the exceptions noted below. **Note: in some situations, a negative claim payment amount May be present; e.g., (1) when a beneficiary is charged the full deductible during a short stay and the deductible exceeded the amount Medicare pays; or (2) when a beneficiary is charged a coinsurance amount during a long stay and the coinsurance amount exceeds the amount Medicare pays (most prevalent situation involves psych hospitals who are paid a daily per diem rate no matter what the charges are.) Under ip PPS, Inpatient hospital services are paid based on a predetermined rate per discharge, using the DRG patient classification system and the pricer program. On the ip PPS claim, the payment amount includes the DRG outlier approved payment amount, disproportionate share (since 5/1/86), in- direct medical education (since 10/1/88), total PPS capital (since 10/1/91). It does not include the pass thru amounts (i.e., capital-related costs, direct medical education costs, kidney acquisition costs, bad debts); or any beneficiary-paid amounts (i.e., deductibles and coinsurance); or any other payer reimbursement. Under SNF PPS, SNFs will classify beneficiaries using the patient classification system known as rugs III. For the SNF PPS claim, the SNF pricer will calculate/return the rate for each revenue center line item with revenue center code = '0022'; multiply the rate times the units count; and then sum the amount payable for all lines with revenue center code '0022' to determine the total claim payment amount. Exceptions: For claims involving demos and bba encounter data, the amount reported in this field May not just represent the actual provider payment. For demo ids '01','02','03','04' -- claims contain amount paid to the provider, except that special 'differentials' paid outside the normal payment system are not included. For demo ids '05','15' -- encounter data 'claims' contain amount Medicare would have paid under ffs, instead of the actual pay- ment to the MCO. For demo ids '06','07','08' -- claims contain actual provider payment but represent a special negotiated bundled payment for both part a and part B services. To identify what the conventional provider part a payment would have been, check value code = 'y4'. For bba encounter data (non-demo) -- 'claims' contain amount Medicare would have paid under ffs, instead of the actual payment to the bba plan.
