Specification

STEP 1: Active paid LT claims during DQ report month

Define the LT claims universe at the line 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, including orphan lines

1c. Keep headers and associated lines if header is not denied; keep lines if header is missing (If header is denied also drop associated lines)

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 line duplicates

Duplicates are dropped at the line level, if the following four data elements are the same: ICN-ORIG, ICN-ADJ, ADJUDICATION-DATE, and LINE-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: Orphan lines

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

STEP 3: Calculate percentage

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