Beginning 2008, detailed charge categories for Arizona are:

Beginning in 1995, the source reports detailed charges. Arizona uses the UB-92 revenue codes to group similar charges. For example, CHG8 "Nursery" includes all charges to the three-digit UB-92 revenue codes that begin with 17. This will include "Routine Newborn," revenue code 170, and "Neo-Natal ICU," revenue code 175. Although detailed charges are supplied by the data source, they are frequently not reported. The analyst should consider the frequency of non-missing values before using these data elements for analysis.

Due to an error in HCUP processing for 2003-2004, two detailed charges were not properly assigned. CHG38 (Osteopathic Services) and CHG39 (Ambulance) were read from an incorrect location. These charges should be excluded from analyses of 2003-2004 data. No other years were affected.

Detailed charge categories for Arizona through 2007 are:

The charge categories for Colorado are:

District of Columbia provided revenue center charge (CHGn) for the following 10 categories:

Beginning with 2018, Florida supplied charge details by aggregated UB-04 revenue center categories.

From 2010-2017, Florida supplied charge details by the aggregated UB-04 revenue center categories below.

Beginning in 2006, Florida supplied charge details by aggregated UB-92 or UB-04 revenue center categories. The following are the revenue centers associated with each variable. The small x refers to all valid digits within the general category, e.g., revenue center 11x refers to 110-119.

For 1992-2005, Florida supplied charge details by aggregated UB-82 revenue center categories. The following are the revenue centers associated with each variable. The small x refers to all valid digits within the general category, e.g., revenue center 11x refers to 110-119.

Beginning in 1993, Iowa includes professional fees (CHG1) in its total charges if the hospital combines hospital and professional bills. Professional fees are subtracted from total charges (TOTCHG and TOTCHG_X) during HCUP processing to make Iowa total charges comparable to data from other states. Beginning with 2003, Iowa no longer collects separate professional fees (CHG1).

From 1998 through 2007, Iowa provided 22 additional detailed charges for a total of 23 detailed charges. They are as follows:

Detailed charges associated with the groups of revenue centers were discontinued in 2008.

Beginning in 2008, New Jersey provided charges associated with specific revenue centers. These charges were stored in REVCHGn field.

The charge categories from New Jersey are:

Warning: In 1995, confusion over the mapping of Uniform Billing revenue codes to Neonatal Intensive Care Unit charges (CHG8) and newborn nursery charges (CHG9) caused some hospitals to erroneously place NICU charges (CHG8) under nursery charges (CHG9). This does not affect other years.

New Jersey includes professional fees in several charge categories because professional fees are aggregated within the revenue centers and the fees cannot be separated. There is no documentation available from the data source to determine where professional fees were included.

Starting in 2008, Oregon provided a separate file with revenue codes, revenue charges, and units. After further research, the detailed revenue charges appears to be reliable and will be used instead of the 10 charge buckets. For the 1995 - 2007 HCUP Oregon databases, ten detailed charge categories are available:

The ancillary charge (CHG1) is the sum of all charges except room and board charges (CHG3-CHG10).

Some hospitals reported detailed charges (CHG1-CHG10) but not total charges (TOTCHG and TOTCHG_X) on charity bills since there are no charges to the patient. Other hospitals did not submit data for the detailed charge categories (CHG1-CHG10), although total charges (TOTCHG and TOTCHG_X) were reported.

Rhode Island provides 37 detail charges:

The number of detailed charges supplied by South Carolina changes across years.

• Prior to 1995, South Carolina supplied 51 detailed charges and no charge for "Other Charges".
• In 1995, South Carolina supplied 52 detailed charges. They created charge fields (CHG1-CHG51) that were comparable to previous years and added a new charge field (CHG52) labeled "Other Charges".


• Starting in 1996, South Carolina supplied 78 detailed charges. Some charges are an addition to those previously supplied. For example, starting in 1996 there is a category for room and board charges from a Hospice. Other charges give more detail than previously supplied. For example, prior to 1996 there was one charge for ICU charges. Starting in 1996, there are 5 different ICU charges.

Starting in 1996, the detailed charge categories from South Carolina were:

Prior to 1996, the detailed charge categories from South Carolina were:

Professional fees are subtracted from total charges (TOTCHG and TOTCHG_X) during HCUP processing to make South Dakota total charges comparable to data from other states. Beginning with 2003, South Dakota no longer reports a separate "professional component of charges" (CHG23).

South Dakota provides 23 detail charges:

The charge categories for Utah are:

Detailed charges (CHGn) are associated with the identified revenue centers (REVCDn) and the units of service (UNITn). For example, CHG1 applies to the revenue center in REVCD1 and the units of service specified in UNIT1.

Units are not required for all revenue sources; the units field may be coded as missing (.) or zero.

For 2000-2004, if total charges are identified in the detail charges (REVCDn = "001"), the corresponding detail charge, unit, and revenue code are set to missing. Beginning with 2005, total charges are kept in the detailed charges.
