Form
[X] Form 1
[ ] Form 2
Source
- Collected from acute and rehabilitation facilities Billing Departments
Details
Include psychology charges in the total inpatient rehabilitation hospital charge, even if the psychology charges are direct billed and not included in the hospital bill.
Charge data should be directly related to acute care and inpatient rehabilitation lengths of stay, therefore: 1) do not include charges for intermittent acute stays during inpatient rehabilitation.
Charges associated with short-term rehabilitation interruptions greater than or equal to 72 hours should be collected and included in the acute care total.
For interruptions in System care of less than 72 hours, there is enough variation across centers in the nature of charges data that are available, that for purposes of analysis, homogeneity of the data cannot be assumed.
Rehab charges: should include psych, rec therapy, and social services. Physician charges should not be included.
Actual dollar cost - round to whole dollars only, no cents.
Characteristics
In 2003 four Model Systems had difficulty obtaining Acute Charges data; two of these also had difficulty obtaining Rehab Charges data (10% or more missing data).
