=> Non-CC Subclass : cases with no other sdx codes on the CC or MCC list													
=> CC Subclass : cases with additional sdx codes on the CC list and no other codes on the MCC list													
=> MCC Subclass : cases with additional sdx codes on the MCC list													
=> X is the estimated subclass value from the data													
=> Y is an interpolation of the value of the actual average cost for the subclass between the estimated subclass													
        value and the next higher subclass value													
													
X	Low	High											
0	0	"<E(1,s)"	Significantly below expected value for the non-CC subclass										
1	"E(1,s)"	"<E(2,s)"	Approximately equal to expected values for the non-CC subclass										
2	"E(2,s)"	"<E(3,s)"	Approximately equal to expected values for the CC subclass										
2	"E(3,s)"	"<2E(3,s)"	Approximately equal to expected values for the MCC subclass										
3	">2E(3,s)"		Significantly above expected value for the MCC subclass
