DD Data Element Number ELG033 • ELG040 • ELG041

Annotation Calculate the percentage of eligibles with a citizen status whose Medicaid enrollment is pending citizenship verification
Specification STEP 1: Enrolled on the last day of DQ report month

Define the eligible population from segment ENROLLMENT-TIME-SPAN-ELG00021 by keeping active records that satisfy the following criteria:

1. ENROLLMENT-EFF-DATE <= last day of the DQ report month

2. ENROLLMENT-END-DATE >= last day of the DQ report month OR missing

3. MSIS-IDENTIFICATION-NUM is not missing



STEP 2: Variable demographics on the last day of DQ report month

Using the MSIS IDs that meet the criteria from STEP 1, join to segment VARIABLE-DEMOGRAPHIC-ELG00003 by keeping records that satisfy the following criteria:

1a. VARIABLE-DEMOGRAPHIC-ELEMENT-EFF-DATE <= last day of the DQ report month

2a. VARIABLE-DEMOGRAPHIC-ELEMENT-END-DATE >= last day of the DQ report month OR missing

OR

1b. VARIABLE-DEMOGRAPHIC-ELEMENT-EFF-DATE is missing

2b. VARIABLE-DEMOGRAPHIC-ELEMENT-END-DATE is missing



STEP 3: U.S. citizen

Of the MSIS IDs that meet the criteria from STEP 2, further refine the population by keeping MSIS IDs where:

1. CITIZENSHIP-IND = "1"



STEP 4: Enrollment in Medicaid is pending citizenship verification

Of the MSIS IDs that meet the criteria from STEP 3, restrict to those pending citizenship verification:

1. CITIZENSHIP-VERIFICATION-FLAG = "1"



STEP 5: Calculate percentage

Divide the count of unique MSIS IDs from STEP 4 by the count of unique MSIS IDs from STEP 3
