[1] The Progress by Population Group analysis is a component of the Healthy People 2020 (HP2020) Final Review. The analysis included subsets of the 1,111 measurable HP2020 objectives that have data available for any of six broad population characteristics: sex, race and ethnicity, educational attainment, family income, disability status, and geographic location. Progress toward meeting HP2020 targets is presented for up to 24 population groups within these characteristics, based on objective data aggregated across HP2020 topic areas. The Progress by Population Group data are also available at the individual objective level in the downloadable data set. [2] The final value was generally based on data available on the HP2020 website as of January 2020. For objectives that are continuing into HP2030, more recent data will be included on the HP2030 website as it becomes available: https://health.gov/healthypeople. [3] For more information on the HP2020 methodology for measuring progress toward target attainment and the elimination of health disparities, see: Healthy People Statistical Notes, no 27; available from: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/statnt/statnt27.pdf. [4] Status for objectives included in the HP2020 Progress by Population Group analysis was determined using the baseline, final, and target value. The progress status categories used in HP2020 were: a. Target met or exceeded—One of the following applies: (i) At baseline, the target was not met or exceeded, and the most recent value was equal to or exceeded the target (the percentage of targeted change achieved was equal to or greater than 100%); (ii) The baseline and most recent values were equal to or exceeded the target (the percentage of targeted change achieved was not assessed). b. Improved—One of the following applies: (i) Movement was toward the target, standard errors were available, and the percentage of targeted change achieved was statistically significant; (ii) Movement was toward the target, standard errors were not available, and the objective had achieved 10% or more of the targeted change. c. Little or no detectable change—One of the following applies: (i) Movement was toward the target, standard errors were available, and the percentage of targeted change achieved was not statistically significant; (ii) Movement was toward the target, standard errors were not available, and the objective had achieved less than 10% of the targeted change; (iii) Movement was away from the baseline and target, standard errors were available, and the percent change relative to the baseline was not statistically significant; (iv) Movement was away from the baseline and target, standard errors were not available, and the objective had moved less than 10% relative to the baseline; (v) No change was observed between the baseline and the final data point. d. Got worse—One of the following applies: (i) Movement was away from the baseline and target, standard errors were available, and the percent change relative to the baseline was statistically significant; (ii) Movement was away from the baseline and target, standard errors were not available, and the objective had moved 10% or more relative to the baseline. NOTE: Measurable objectives had baseline data. SOURCE: National Center for Health Statistics, Healthy People 2020 Progress by Population Group database.

Context

The CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) was developed as part of the Administrative Simplification provisions in the original HIPAA act. The primary purpose of NPPES was to develop a unique identifier for each physician that billed medicare and medicaid. This identifier is now known as the National Provider Identifier Standard (NPI) which is a required 10 digit number that is unique to an individual provider at the national level.

Once an NPI record is assigned to a healthcare provider, parts of the NPI record that have public relevance, including the provider’s name, speciality, and practice address are published in a searchable website as well as downloadable file of zipped data containing all of the FOIA disclosable health care provider data in NPPES and a separate PDF file of code values which documents and lists the descriptions for all of the codes found in the data file.

Content

The dataset contains the latest NPI downloadable file in an easy to query BigQuery table, npi_raw. In addition, there is a second table, npi_optimized which harnesses the power of Big Query’s next-generation columnar storage format to provide an analytical view of the NPI data containing description fields for the codes based on the mappings in Data Dissemination Public File - Code Values documentation as well as external lookups to the healthcare provider taxonomy codes . While this generates hundreds of columns, BigQuery makes it possible to process all this data effectively and have a convenient single lookup table for all provider information.

Context

The Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS, often pronounced by its acronym as "hick picks") is a set of health care procedure codes based on the American Medical Association's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT).

HCPCS includes three levels of codes: Level I consists of the American Medical Association's Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and is numeric. Level II codes are alphanumeric and primarily include non-physician services such as ambulance services and prosthetic devices, and represent items and supplies and non-physician services, not covered by CPT-4 codes (Level I). Level III codes, also called local codes, were developed by state Medicaid agencies, Medicare contractors, and private insurers for use in specific programs and jurisdictions. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) instructed CMS to adopt a standard coding systems for reporting medical transactions. The use of Level III codes was discontinued on December 31, 2003, in order to adhere to consistent coding standards.

Content

Classification of procedures performed for patients is important for billing and reimbursement in healthcare. The primary classification system used in the United States is Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS), maintained by Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). This system is divided into two levels: level I and level II.

Level I HCPCS codes classify services rendered by physicians. This system is based on Common Procedure Terminology (CPT), a coding system maintained by the American Medical Association (AMA). Level II codes, which are the focus of this public dataset, are used to identify products, supplies, and services not included in level I codes. The level II codes include items such as ambulance services, durable medical goods, prosthetics, orthotics and supplies used outside a physician’s office.

Given the ubiquity of administrative data in healthcare, HCPCS coding systems are also commonly used in areas of clinical research such as outcomes based research.

To estimate county of residence of Filipinx healthcare workers who died of COVID-19, we retrieved data from the Kanlungan website during the month of December 2020.22 In deciding who to include on the website, the AF3IRM team that established the Kanlungan website set two standards in data collection. First, the team found at least one source explicitly stating that the fallen healthcare worker was of Philippine ancestry; this was mostly media articles or obituaries sharing the life stories of the deceased. In a few cases, the confirmation came directly from the deceased healthcare worker's family member who submitted a tribute. Second, the team required a minimum of two sources to identify and announce fallen healthcare workers. We retrieved 86 US tributes from Kanlungan, but only 81 of them had information on county of residence. In total, 45 US counties with at least one reported tribute to a Filipinx healthcare worker who died of COVID-19 were identified for analysis and will hereafter be referred to as “Kanlungan counties.” Mortality data by county, race, and ethnicity came from the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS).24 Updated weekly, this dataset is based on vital statistics data for use in conducting public health surveillance in near real time to provide provisional mortality estimates based on data received and processed by a specified cutoff date, before data are finalized and publicly released.25 We used the data released on December 30, 2020, which included provisional COVID-19 death counts from February 1, 2020 to December 26, 2020—during the height of the pandemic and prior to COVID-19 vaccines being available—for counties with at least 100 total COVID-19 deaths. During this time period, 501 counties (15.9% of the total 3,142 counties in all 50 states and Washington DC)26 met this criterion. Data on COVID-19 deaths were available for six major racial/ethnic groups: Non-Hispanic White, Non-Hispanic Black, Non-Hispanic Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, Non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Native, Non-Hispanic Asian (hereafter referred to as Asian American), and Hispanic. People with more than one race, and those with unknown race were included in the “Other” category. NCHS suppressed county-level data by race and ethnicity if death counts are less than 10. In total, 133 US counties reported COVID-19 mortality data for Asian Americans. These data were used to calculate the percentage of all COVID-19 decedents in the county who were Asian American. We used data from the 2018 American Community Survey (ACS) five-year estimates, downloaded from the Integrated Public Use Microdata Series (IPUMS) to create county-level population demographic variables.27 IPUMS is publicly available, and the database integrates samples using ACS data from 2000 to the present using a high degree of precision.27 We applied survey weights to calculate the following variables at the county-level: median age among Asian Americans, average income to poverty ratio among Asian Americans, the percentage of the county population that is Filipinx, and the percentage of healthcare workers in the county who are Filipinx. Healthcare workers encompassed all healthcare practitioners, technical occupations, and healthcare service occupations, including nurse practitioners, physicians, surgeons, dentists, physical therapists, home health aides, personal care aides, and other medical technicians and healthcare support workers. County-level data were available for 107 out of the 133 counties (80.5%) that had NCHS data on the distribution of COVID-19 deaths among Asian Americans, and 96 counties (72.2%) with Asian American healthcare workforce data. The ACS 2018 five-year estimates were also the source of county-level percentage of the Asian American population (alone or in combination) who are Filipinx.8 In addition, the ACS provided county-level population counts26 to calculate population density (people per 1,000 people per square mile), estimated by dividing the total population by the county area, then dividing by 1,000 people. The county area was calculated in ArcGIS 10.7.1 using the county boundary shapefile and projected to Albers equal area conic (for counties in the US contiguous states), Hawai’i Albers Equal Area Conic (for Hawai’i counties), and Alaska Albers Equal Area Conic (for Alaska counties).20

What We Eat in America (WWEIA) is the dietary intake interview component of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). WWEIA is conducted as a partnership between the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). Two days of 24-hour dietary recall data are collected through an initial in-person interview, and a second interview conducted over the telephone within three to 10 days. Participants are given three-dimensional models (measuring cups and spoons, a ruler, and two household spoons) and/or USDA's Food Model Booklet (containing drawings of various sizes of glasses, mugs, bowls, mounds, circles, and other measures) to estimate food amounts. WWEIA data are collected using USDA's dietary data collection instrument, the Automated Multiple-Pass Method (AMPM). The AMPM is a fully computerized method for collecting 24-hour dietary recalls either in-person or by telephone. For each 2-year data release cycle, the following dietary intake data files are available: Individual Foods File - Contains one record per food for each survey participant. Foods are identified by USDA food codes. Each record contains information about when and where the food was consumed, whether the food was eaten in combination with other foods, amount eaten, and amounts of nutrients provided by the food. Total Nutrient Intakes File - Contains one record per day for each survey participant. Each record contains daily totals of food energy and nutrient intakes, daily intake of water, intake day of week, total number foods reported, and whether intake was usual, much more than usual or much less than usual. The Day 1 file also includes salt use in cooking and at the table; whether on a diet to lose weight or for other health-related reason and type of diet; and frequency of fish and shellfish consumption (examinees one year or older, Day 1 file only). DHHS is responsible for the sample design and data collection, and USDA is responsible for the survey’s dietary data collection methodology, maintenance of the databases used to code and process the data, and data review and processing. USDA also funds the collection and processing of Day 2 dietary intake data, which are used to develop variance estimates and calculate usual nutrient intakes.

This file provides bilingual Chinese-English transcripts of nine focus group discussions (FGDs) carried out in three Chinese cities in June and July 2012. The focus groups were commissioned by the authors from the Research Center for Contemporary China (RCCC) at Peking University as part of the ESRC project ‘Performance evaluations, trust and utilization of health care in China: understanding relationships between attitudes and health-related behaviour’. Local residents over the age of 30 took part in the discussions, which were moderated by a senior researcher from RCCC. The FGDs dealt with five main issues: how people know about changes in the health care system changes; how people make decisions to see a doctor when they are unwell; health care system evaluations; trust in doctors and the health care system; and what kind of a system people would like. The FGDs use a series of fictional scenarios (vignettes) to elicit responses concerning what influences people’s decisions about going to a doctor when they are unwell.This interdisciplinary project establishes a new collaboration among UK researchers and a leading Chinese social research team, to conduct the first major study of Chinese people's attitudes towards their health care. The project's core theoretical contribution is to understanding the relationships between attitudes and health-related behaviours, focussing particularly on how people evaluate their health system, their trust in doctors and the health system, and their utilization of preventive and curative health services. Previous quantitative research on health in China has examined the influence on utilization of age and gender, incomes, insurance protection, distance to health service providers and perceived health care needs. Yet work done in other countries has shown that attitudes, including performance evaluations and trust, can impact on people's decisions about when and where to use health services. At the same time, qualitative studies in China have suggested that people are often critical of performance and that there is a crisis of trust in doctors and the health care system. Our project is the first systematic study of these attitudes and how they influence utilization. The three cities chosen for focus group discussions, Chifeng, Yueyang and Shaoxing, represented respectively a city below the national average, close to the average and above the average in terms of GDP per capita. Two stratifications were used to select participants (see Focus Group Participant Profiles for details): Stratification One: of the general population by location and individual circumstances. This stratification was used in Chifeng and Shaoxing; all participants were local residents. In Chifeng, two discussions was conducted in the city itself and one discussion in a rural area under the city’s jurisdiction. In Shaoxing, one discussion was conducted in the city itself and one in a rural village within the city’s jurisdiction. Stratification Two: of patients by individual circumstances. This stratification was used in Yueyang. The participants in each of the four focus groups were screened by asking whether they had had contact with the health care system during the last two weeks in connection with an injury or illness; and what type of medical insurance they possessed. The initial intention was to stratify patients according to whether they reported suffering acute or chronic conditions. However, the difficulty of recruiting participants prevented this. The stratification of patients was thus according to their type of insurance. Nearly all participants on the first day of discussions (#4 and #5) had medical insurance equivalent to Urban Employees Basic Medical Insurance, whilst participants on the second day of discussions (#6 and #7) did not have this level of insurance. Most of these were members of the Rural Cooperative Medical Scheme, which gives them only limited entitlements to reimbursement of medical expenses in Yueyang.

This is a monthly report on publicly funded community services for children, young people and adults using data from the Community Services Data Set (CSDS) reported in England for May 2018. The CSDS is a patient-level dataset providing information relating to publicly funded community services for children, young people and adults. These services can include health centres, schools, mental health trusts, and health visiting services. The data collected includes personal and demographic information, diagnoses including long-term conditions and disabilities and care events plus screening activities. It has been developed to help achieve better outcomes for children, young people and adults. It provides data that will be used to commission services in a way that improves health, reduces inequalities, and supports service improvement and clinical quality. Prior to October 2017, the predecessor Children and Young Peoples Health Services (CYPHS) Data Set collected data for children and young people aged 0-18. The CSDS superseded the CYPHS data set to allow adult community data to be submitted, expanding the scope of the existing data set by removing the 0-18 age restriction. The structure and content of the CSDS remains the same as the previous CYPHS data set. Further information about the CYPHS and related statistical reports is available in the related links below. References to children and young people covers records submitted for 0-18 year olds and references to adults covers records submitted for those aged over 18. Where analysis for both groups have been combined, this is referred to as all patients. These statistics are classified as experimental and should be used with caution. Experimental statistics are new official statistics undergoing evaluation. They are published in order to involve users and stakeholders in their development and as a means to build in quality at an early stage. More information about experimental statistics can be found on the UK Statistics Authority website. We hope this information is helpful and would be grateful if you could spare a couple of minutes to complete a short customer satisfaction survey. Please use the survey in the related links to provide us with any feedback or suggestions for improving the report.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting Large-Scale Social Restrictions (PSBB) have significantly disrupted routine healthcare services, particularly in high TB burden countries. Despite initial expectations that the private health sector would lead in addressing TB, preliminary data suggests that the sector has shrunk or collapsed in many areas. Private facilities struggled to stay open during PSBB, and providers were reluctant to treat people with respiratory symptoms. Private healthcare costs have soared, especially for hospitalizations. Through this project, we were able to measure pre-treatment costs and factors associated with those costs from the perspective of patients during the COVID-19 pandemic in Bandung, Indonesia. It was found that the median total pre-treatment cost was $35.45 with the highest median cost experienced by participants from private hospitals. The rapid antigen and PCR for SARS-CoV-2 emerged as additional medical costs among 26% of participants recruited in private hospitals. Several factors are associated with higher pre-treatment costs including visiting more than 6 providers before diagnosis, presenting first at a private hospital and private practitioners, and being diagnosed in the private health sector. During the COVID-19 pandemic, people with TB faced significant out-of-pocket costs for diagnosis and treatment, highlighting the importance of early detection and identification in reducing pre-diagnostic TB costs.

This dataset explores Foster Care FY2000 - FY2005 Entries, Exits, and Numbers of Children In Care on the Last Day of Each Federal Fiscal Year. NOTE: This table reflects State data submitted to the Children's Bureau as of March 2007. The table does not include any estimates for individual States. Jurisdictions with insufficient data ("NA") are not included in the total for that year. Pre-2003 Nevada data were generated from various sources, rather than from a statewide child welfare system. NOTE: Ideally, if the number of children in the "in care" count declines, as it did during this period, the number of exits should consistently be greater than the number of entries in that year. However, this does not occur with these data. Underreporting of foster care exits by some States is the major reason for this data quality issue.

Request I believe the above scheme needs to be put in place urgently. Can you please answer the following questions: 1. How many people have applied to you for Ill Health Retirement with Long Covid? 2. How many people have been rejected for Tier One and/or Tier Two levels of IHR when applying with Long Covid? 3. What evidence (listing guidance and research evidence) are being used to reject or confirm applications for IHR with Long Covid? Response Question 1 & 2 A copy of the information is attached. Question 3 Each Scheme Medical Adviser (SMA) is expected to adopt evidence-based practice in arriving at a decision. They do this by combining the following: Medical evidence provided in the Scheme member’s application, Further medical evidence that the SMA may have requested from the Scheme member’s treating healthcare professionals, Information that the employer may have provided in Part A of Form AW33E (e.g. demands of the work duties, any workplace adjustments tried, and the effectiveness of such adjustments), Information that the Scheme member may have provided in Part B of Form AW33E (for example, how long COVID affects them), Current medical literature on long COVID, And the SMA’s occupational health expertise. When assessing ill-health retirement applications from scheme members who have long COVID, the SMA might consult the following guidance and research evidence: • The Society of Occupational Medicine (SOM): ‘Long COVID and Return to Work – What Works?’ (https://www.som.org.uk/sites/som.org.uk/files/Long_COVID_and_Return_to_Work_What_Works_0.pdf) • The Faculty of Occupational Medicine (FOM): ‘Guidance for healthcare professionals on return to work for patients with post-COVID syndrome’ (https://www.fom.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/FOM-Guidance-post-COVID_healthcare-professionals.pdf) • Occupational and Environmental Medicine (academic journal of the FOM: https://oem.bmj.com) • Occupational Medicine (academic journal of the SOM: https://academic.oup.com/occmed?login=false) • Industrial Injuries Advisory Council publication: ‘COVID-19 and Occupational Impacts’ (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1119955/covid-19-and-occupational-impacts.pdf) • NICE: https://cks.nice.org.uk/topics/long-term-effects-of-coronavirus-long-covid • Nature. An example of a recent publication in this journal is Davis, H., McCorkell, L., Vogel, J. M., & Topol, E. J. (2023). Long covid: major findings, mechanisms and recommendations.
