                                     MEDPAR Admission Death Day Count calculated incorrectly,
                                     on both the 3/00 and 6/00 MEDPAR updates.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     Both the 3/00 and 6/00 MEDPAR updates incorrectly cal-
                                     culated the mortality days; i.e., days between the
                                     admission date and the beneficiary date of death. Users
                                     of the regular unencrypted MEDPAR file, this is not a
                                     problem, as the count can be calculated using the
                                     admission date and the date of death.  The problem is
                                     with the encrypted file (the expanded modified MEDPAR)
                                     because the fields needed to calculate the mortality
                                     days are ranged.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     The problem was corrected with the 12/00 MEDPAR
                                     update.  NOTE:  For users of the expanded modified
                                     MEDPAR file who needs the mortality days, the 12/00
                                     update of the FY1999 file can be given as a replace-
                                     ment.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     It was discovered that, in certain cases, the beneficiary
                                     age is being calculated incorrectly in the MedPAR files.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     MedPAR is designed to update a beneficiary's age to 65 when
                                     the beneficiary is already 65, or when the beneficiary is 64 with
                                     MEDPAR_BENE_MDCR_STUS_CD = 10 or 11. However, in some cases,
                                     the age was incorrectly updated to 65 for beneficiaries who were not
                                     64 but still had MEDPAR_BENE_MDCR_STUS_CD = 10 or 11.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     This issue is being addressed as part of MedPAR Modernization.
                                     The logic for updating a beneficiary's age to 65 will be corrected
                                     to ensure that the update occurs only when the beneficiary is
                                     already 65, or when the beneficiary is 64 and
                                     'MEDPAR_BENE_MDCR_STUS_CD' is 10 or 11.

                                     Note: The 12/25 quarterly update will be executed through the modernized
                                     cloud process, which will provide up-to-date information. Please note
                                     that the Legacy code will not be updated.

                                   DESCRIPTION :
                                     It was discovered that the blood deductible amounts were
                                     incorrect on the old MEDPAR Files.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     Users of the MEDPAR data were comparing money amounts and
                                     counts present on the new MEDPAR file (created 6/95 using
                                     NCH Nearline File as the source) to that reported on the
                                     old MEDPAR File (created 3/95 and prior from claims from
                                     the Medicare Quality Assurance System) for Fiscal Year
                                     1994.  They discovered that the blood deductible amount on
                                     the new MEDPAR was greater than that of the old MEDPAR.

                                     During NCH's investigation it was determined that the old
                                     500-character MEDPAR incorrectly used a different field
                                     to report the blood deductible; specifically the noncovered
                                     charges derived from blood use Revenue Center codes 0380-
                                     0389.  The new program correctly used the NCH field,
                                     BENE_BLOOD_DDCTBL_LBLTY_AMT, which is derived from a value
                                     code (CLM_VAL_AMT associated with CLM_VAL_CD = '6').

                                     It is believed that all MEDPAR files created prior to 6/95
                                     in the 500 character version are affected. MEDPAR 500 was
                                     first available with calendar year and fiscal year 9/91
                                     updates for year 1987 forward.

                                     NOTE:  This anomoly also impacts the DRG Price Amount on the
                                     old MEDPAR file because it is calculated from a number of
                                     fields including the blood deductible.

                                     The Date of Death on the MEDPAR files were not up-to-
                                     date for four cycles.
                                   BACKGROUND    :
                                     The MEDPAR process pulls in 10 segments of the HISKEW
                                     file, to get the date of death.  The HISKEW file
                                     names were changed with no notification the change
                                     was being made.  Because of this, MEDPAR kept using
                                     the HISKEW that was created in June 2000.

                                     The incomplete MEDPAR cycles are: 12/2000, 3/2001,
                                     6/2001 and 9/2001 (9/2000 MEDPAR was not run).
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     Since this anomoly causes no major problem to the
                                     prime user of this data, a rerun will not take place.
                                     NOTE:  The 12/01 quarterly update will access up-to-
                                     date information.

                                     1994.  They discovered that the DRG price amount on the
                                     new MEDPAR contained incorrect amounts.

                                     NOTE:  This anomoly occurs because the DRG price amount is
                                     calculated from a number of fields including the blood
                                     deductible amount, which was discovered to be populated
                                     incorrectly.

                                     revenue code 0762 is present in the first segment of a claim.
                                     However, in cases with multiple segments, the value was incorrectly
                                     replaced by the last segment's data. As a result, if the last segment
                                     did not contain 0762, MEDPAR_OBSRVTN_SW was incorrectly set to 'N'.
                                   CORRECTIVE ACTION :
                                     This issue is being addressed as part of MedPAR Modernization.
                                     If 0762 is present on the claim, then 'MEDPAR_OBSRVTN_SW'
                                     field will be set to 'Y'

                                     cloud process, which will provide up-to-date information. Please note
                                     that the Legacy code will not be updated.

                                     segment when a claim contains multiple segments (i.e., revenue center
                                     count >  45). However, in some cases, the field was incorrectly populate
                                     using the NDC numbers from the last segment.

 				It was discovered that, in certain cases, the ‘MEDPAR_VALCD_Q1_PMT_RDC_AMT’

				BACKGROUND:  
				Currently, MedPAR is designed to populate the ‘MEDPAR_VALCD_Q1_PMT_RDC_AMT’ 
				by accumulating CLM-VAL-AMT values associated with Claim Value Code Q1 
				(CLM-VAL-CD = 'Q1'). However, if the first occurrence of Q1 contains a 
				negative amount, that amount is discarded and not included in the calculation. 
				Only subsequent Q1 amounts are accumulated into MEDPAR_VALCD_Q1_PMT_RDC_AMT.

				CORRECTIVE ACTION :  
				This issue is being addressed as part of MedPAR Modernization. The ‘MEDPAR 
				Value Code Q1 Payment Reduction Amount’ will be populated by accumulating 
				all CLM-VAL-AMT values associated with   Claim Value Code Q1 (CLM_VAL_CD = 
				'Q1'), regardless of whether they were positive or negative.
