The report indicates the number of out-of-state RTC patients.
Patients appear on this historical data report only if the billing and/or servicing provider
indicated a principle diagnosis on the submitted claim form.
Diagnosis information may or may not appear on claim forms for patients
with long-term medical conditions (e.g., diabetes).
Patient counts are based upon when the service occurred and not when the service was paid.
The DHCFP data warehouse is comprised of claims data submitted by over 15,000 Medicaid providers
from within Nevada and across the country. While DHCFP staff conscientiously make their best efforts to
validate this data through continuous provider education and the use of a highly experienced audit staff,
the Division heavily relies on its providers to submit accurate and complete information on our medicaid
patients.
It should therefore be understood by the users of DHCFP reports on disease morbidity and patient health
that the data source for these reports is based solely on patient claims data and may not be a complete
and comprehensive health record.
