Annotation Calculate the percentage of unique RX claim header records that appear more than once
Specification STEP 1: Active RX claims during DQ report month

Define the RX claims universe at the header level that satisfy the following criteria:

1. Reporting Period for the filename = DQ report month

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

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

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

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



STEP 2: Total Count

From the records in STEP 1, count the number of unique header records. A unique header record is defined by distinct combinations of the following data elements: ICN-ORIG, ICN-ADJ, ADJUDICATION-DATE, and ADJUSTMENT-IND.



STEP 3: Count duplicates

From the records in STEP 1, count unique header records that appear more than once



STEP 4: Percentage
