Annotation Calculate the percentage of paid LT claim headers that do not have corresponding claim lines
Specification STEP 1: Active paid LT claims during DQ report month

Define the LT claims universe at the header level by importing both headers and lines that satisfy the following criteria:



1a. Limit to Report Month

Reporting Period from the filename = DQ report month



1b. Join Headers and Lines

Merge headers and lines using: ICN-ORIG, ICN-ADJ, ADJUDICATION-DATE, and ADJUSTMENT-IND=LINE-ADJSTMT-IND, and keep all claims, even if there is no match



1c. Keep headers and associated lines if header is not denied

1. CLAIM-STATUS-CATEGORY is not equal to "F2" or is missing

2. CLAIM-DENIED-INDICATOR is not equal to "0" or is missing

3. TYPE-OF-CLAIM is not equal to "Z" or is missing

4. CLAIM-STATUS is not equal to ("26","026","87","087","542","585", "654") or is missing



1d. Drop Header Duplicates

Duplicates are dropped at the header level, if the following four data elements are the same: ICN-ORIG, ICN-ADJ, ADJUDICATION-DATE, and ADJUSTMENT-IND.



1e. Keep line if line is not denied

1. CLAIM-LINE-STATUS is not equal to ("26","026","87","087","542","585","654") or is missing



STEP 2: Childless headers

Of the claim headers that meet the criteria from STEP 1, keep claim headers that did not merge to any claim line



STEP 3: Calculate percentage

Divide the count of claim headers from STEP 2 by the count of claim headers from STEP 1
