PAY1 - Expected primary payer, uniform

Documentation Sections:

PAY1 indicates the expected primary payer (Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, etc.). To ensure uniformity of coding across data sources, PAY1 combines detailed categories in the more general groups. For example,

Medicare includes both fee-for-service and managed care Medicare patients.
Medicaid includes both fee-for-service and managed care Medicaid patients.
Private insurance (PAY1 = 3) includes Blue Cross, commercial carriers, and private HMOs and PPOs.
Other (PAY1 = 6) includes Worker's Compensation, CHAMPUS, CHAMPVA, Title V, and other government programs.

In the 1988-1997 data, the data element PAY1_N provides more detailed categories for private insurance and other payers. This data element is discontinued beginning in the 1998 data because of the difficulty of coding the information uniformly across States.

The HCUP data element PAY1_X retains the expected primary payer as provided by the data source. The State Specific Notes for PAY1 include information on how the source values contained in the PAY1_X are recoded into the HCUP uniform values of PAY1.

If information on secondary or tertiary payers is provided by the data source, the coding of the associated HCUP variables (PAY2, PAY2_X, and PAY3_X) is included under the State Specific Notes for PAY1.

HCUP is in the process of defining two new uniform payer variables that identify HMO and PPO payers (HMOPPO1 and HMOPPO2). These variables are under development and are not yet available on the HCUP Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS).

Primary, secondary, and tertiary expected payer information was provided in two fields: a one character payer category ("A" through "H") and detailed payer identifier of 3, 5, or 9 digits. The 3-digit identifiers refer to Blue Cross plans, but no source documentation was available to link the 3-digit identifier to a Blue Cross plan name. The 9-digit identifiers refer to commercial, HMO, and self-administered plans, but no source documentation was available to link the 9-digit identifier to a plan name. The Illinois Department of Insurance may have a list of the plan names for the 9-digit codes. All 5-digit identifiers were named. This information is included in the above table. The one-character payer category and the detailed payer identifier were concatenated together to create the HCUP variables PAY1_X, PAY2_X, and PAY3_X. During HCUP processing, PAY1/PAY2 and HMOPPO1/HMOPPO2 were assigned using the first character of PAY1_X/PAY2_X (e.g., "A", "B", "C", etc.) with the following exception. When PAY1_X/PAY2_X started with "H", PAY1/PAY2 and HMOPPO1/HMOPPO2 were assigned using the 6 character code.

New York Note: New York reports source of payment on their ED records instead of expected payer. The coding scheme uses alphabetic characters A through I defined in the recode table. New York reports expected payer for ambulatory surgery data (coding scheme is numeric). If an ambulatory surgery record has evidence of ED services (either ED charge or an admission source), then the record is also included in the HCUP SEDD.
