Title: RoleClassCoverageSponsor
Experimental: false
Description:
A role played by an entity, usually an organization that is the sponsor of an insurance plan or a health program. A sponsor is the party that is ultimately accountable for the coverage by employment contract or by law. A sponsor can be an employer, union, government agency, or association. Fully insured sponsors establish the terms of the plan and contract with health insurance plans to assume the risk and to administer the plan. Self-insured sponsors delegate coverage administration, but not risk, to third-party administrators. Program sponsors designate services to be covered in accordance with statute. Program sponsors may administer the coverage themselves, delegate coverage administration, but not risk to third-party administrators, or contract with health insurance plans to assume the risk and administrator a program. Sponsors qualify individuals who may become

1.  a policy holder of the plan;
2.  where the sponsor is the policy holder, who may become a subscriber or a dependent to a policy under the plan; or
3.  where the sponsor is a government agency, who may become program eligibles under a program.

The sponsor role may be further qualified by the SponsorRole.code. Entities playing the sponsor role may also play the role of a Coverage Administrator.

*Example:* An employer, union, government agency, or association.

Name: RoleClassCoveredParty
Title: RoleClassCoveredParty
Experimental: false
Description:
**Description:** A relationship between a party that receives benefit coverage under the terms of an insurance policy or program and the underwriter of the policy or program. The role is played by the party that receives benefit coverage under the terms of a particular insurance policy or program. The organization playing the underwriter of that policy or program is the scoping entity.

A covered party receives coverage under a policy because of some contractual or other relationship with the policy holder. In most cases, the policy holder has discretion over which parties may be covered under a policy, unless the policy holder assigns or is required by a court to assign this right.

A covered party receives coverage under a program by being determined eligible based on program eligibility criteria specified by the program sponsor.

**Discussion:** This reason for coverage is specified by use of a role type code from either of the abstract value sets beneath the PolicyOrProgramCoverageRoleType abstract value set.

The CoverageRoleType abstract value set can only be used when the role class is the concept code "covered party" (COVPTY) because this value set contains precoordinated coded concepts relating to coverage criteria that was developed for the Canadian realm. This is to avoid overlapping concepts, e.g., the DEPEN role.class cannot be used with the FAMDEP Role.code

The CoveredPartyRoleType abstract value set may be used with any of the covered party role class codes to support post coordination of coverage criteria. Where coverage under a policy depends on the concurrence of a policy holder, a relationship link with type code of indirect authority should be included using the policy holder role as the source, and the covered party role as the target.

**Note:** A particular policy may cover several parties, one of whom may be, but need not be, the policy holder. Thus the notion of covered party is a role that is distinct from that of the policy holder.

**Note:** The entity playing the role of covered party is an organization, a non-person living subject or a group of persons, the role class codes Subscriber and Dependent may not be used.

Title: RoleClassDependent
Experimental: false
Description:
**Description:** A role played by a person covered under a policy or program based on an association with a subscriber, which is recognized by the policy holder.

**Note:** The party playing the role of a dependent is not a claimant in the sense conveyed by the RoleClassCoveredParty CLAIM (claimant). However, a dependent may make a claim under a policy, e.g., a dependent under a health insurance policy may become the claimant for coverage under that policy for wellness examines or if injured and there is no liable third party. In the case of a dependent making a claim, a role type code INSCLM (insured claimant) subtypes the class to indicate that the dependent has filed a claim for services covered under the health insurance policy.

**Example:** The dependent has an association with the subscriber such as a financial dependency or personal relationship such as that of a spouse, or a natural or adopted child. The policy holder may be required by law to recognize certain associations or may have discretion about the associations. For example, a policy holder may dictate the criteria for the dependent status of adult children who are students, such as requiring full time enrollment, or may recognize domestic partners as dependents. Under certain circumstances, the dependent may be under the indirect authority of a responsible party acting as a surrogate for the subscriber, for example, if the subscriber is differently abled or deceased, a guardian ad Lidem or estate executor may be appointed to assume the subscriberaTMs legal standing in the relationship with the dependent.

A role played by a person or organization that holds an insurance policy. The underwriter of that policy is the scoping entity.

*Discussion:*The identifier of the policy is captured in 'Role.id' when the Role is a policy holder.

A particular policy may cover several individuals one of whom may be, but need not be, the policy holder. Thus the notion of covered party is a role that is distinct from that of the policy holder.

**Description:** A role played by a party that meets the eligibility criteria for coverage under a program. A program eligible may be either a person, non-person living subject, or an organization, or a group of persons, non-person living subjects, or organizations.

**Discussion:** A program as typically government administered coverage for parties determined eligible under the terms of the program.

**Note:** The party playing a program eligible is not a claimant in the sense conveyed by the RoleClassCoveredParty CLAIM (claimant). However a program eligible may make a claim under program, e.g., an unemployed worker may claim benefits under an unemployment insurance program, but parties playing these covered party role classes are not, for purposes of this vocabulary and in an effort to clearly distinguish role classes, considered claimants.

In the case of a program eligible, a role type code INJWKR (injured worker) subtypes the class to indicate that the covered party in a workers compensation program is an injured worker, and as such, has filed a "claim" under the program for benefits. Likewise, a covered role type code UNEMP (unemployed worker) subtypes the program eligible class to indicate that the covered party in an unemployment insurance program has filed a claim for unemployment benefits.

**Example:** A party meeting eligibility criteria related to health or financial status, e.g., in the U.S., persons meeting health, demographic, or financial criteria established by state and federal law are eligible for Medicaid.

**Note:** The party playing the role of a subscriber is not a claimant in the sense conveyed by the RoleClassCoveredParty CLAIM (claimant). However, a subscriber may make a claim under a policy, e.g., a subscriber under a health insurance policy may become the claimant for coverage under that policy for wellness examines or if injured and there is no liable third party. In the case of a subscriber making a claim, a role type code INSCLM (insured claimant) subtypes the class to indicate that the subscriber has filed a claim for services covered under the health insurance policy.

**Example:** An employee or a member of an association.

Code: package
Display: Package
Definition:
A versioning policy that indicates that version of the artifact is managed as the version of the package in which the artifact appears. This is a common versioning policy often used when artifacts are published as part of an implementation guide, and is important to consider as it indicates that there may be version changes _without_ corresponding changes in the content of a particular artifact. For example, if an implementation guide includes questionnaires, new versions of that implementation guide may include new questionnaires, but not change existing ones, and in this case, with package-managed versions, the existing questionnaires that had no actual changes would still be published with a new version.


Code: 0000419

A measure of heterogeneity accros study computed by summing the squared deviations of each study's estimate from the overall meta-analytic estimate, weighting each study's contribution in the same manner as in the meta-analysis.


Code: 0000455
Display: Credible interval
Definition:
An interval of a posterior distribution which is such that the density at any point inside the interval is greater than the density at any point outside and that the area under the curve for that interval is equal to a prespecified probability level. For any probability level there is generally only one such interval, which is also often known as the highest posterior density region. Unlike the usual confidence interval associated with frequentist inference, here the intervals specify the range within which parameters lie with a certain probability. The bayesian counterparts of the confidence interval used in frequentists statistics.


Code: 0000420
Display: I-squared
Definition:
The percentage of total variation across studies that is due to heterogeneity rather than chance. I2 can be readily calculated from basic results obtained from a typical meta-analysis as i2 = 100%×(q - df)/q, where q is cochran's heterogeneity statistic and df the degrees of freedom. Negative values of i2 are put equal to zero so that i2 lies between 0% and 100%. A value of 0% indicates no observed heterogeneity, and larger values show increasing heterogeneity. Unlike cochran's q, it does not inherently depend upon the number of studies considered. A confidence interval for i² is constructed using either i) the iterative non-central chi-squared distribution method of hedges and piggott (2001); or ii) the test-based method of higgins and thompson (2002). The non-central chi-square method is currently the method of choice (higgins, personal communication, 2006) – it is computed if the 'exact' option is selected.

Code: numerator-exclusion
Display: Numerator Exclusion
Definition:
Numerator exclusion criteria define patients, subjects, or events to be excluded from the numerator. Numerator exclusions are used in proportion and ratio measures to help narrow the numerator (for inverted measures).


Code: denominator
Display: Denominator
Definition:
Denominator inclusion criteria define the patients, subjects, or events that should be included in the lower portion of a fraction used to calculate a rate, proportion, or ratio. 

 Note that this code is used to identify the starting inclusion criteria for the denominator. The final calculated denominator must be determined by considering all relevant criteria for the scoring type, including denominator inclusion, exclusion, and exception criteria. The final calculated denominator can be the same as the initial population, or a subset of the initial population to further constrain the population for the purpose of the measure.


Code: denominator-exclusion
Display: Denominator Exclusion
Definition:
Denominator exclusion criteria define patients, subjects, or events that should be excluded from the denominator. Denominator exclusions are used in proportion and ratio measures to help narrow the denominator. For example, patients with bilateral lower extremity amputations would be listed as a denominator exclusion for a measure requiring foot exams.


Code: denominator-exception
Display: Denominator Exception
Definition:
Denominator exceptions are conditions that should remove a patient, subject, or event from the denominator of a measure only if the numerator criteria are not met. Denominator exception allows for adjustment of the calculated score for those providers with higher risk populations. Denominator exception criteria are only used in proportion measures.


Code: measure-population
Display: Measure Population
Definition:
Measure population inclusion criteria define the patients, subjects, or events for which the measure observation should be taken. Measure populations are used for continuous variable measures rather than numerator and denominator criteria. 

 Note that this code is used to identify the starting inclusion criteria for the measure population. The final calculated measure population must be determined by considering all relevant criteria for the scoring type, including measure population inclusion and exclusion criteria.


Code: measure-population-exclusion
Display: Measure Population Exclusion
Definition:
Measure population exclusion criteria define the patients or events that should be excluded from the measure population before determining the outcome of one or more continuous variables defined for the measure observation. Measure population exclusion criteria are used within continuous variable measures to help narrow the measure population.


Code: measure-observation

Definition:
Measure observation criteria are used to define an individual observation to be performed for each patient, subject, or event in the measure population. Measure observations for each case in the population are aggregated to determine the overall measure score for the population.


Code: attestation
Display: Attestation
Definition:
The measure is an attestation, meaning that the reporter of the measure is attesting the measure score. This is typically used for true/false attestations, but can be used for other types of measure scores as well. The key distinction is that the measure is not computably represented (i.e. as a calculation or aggregation performed on some data in the reporting system), but rather is a simple attestation made by the measure reporter.


Code: proportion
Display: Proportion
Definition:
The measure is a proportion scoring measure, defined as the result of a fraction (number of events in the numerator divided by the number of events in the denominator). Proportion measures typically define an initial population, then denominator and numerator inclusion and exclusion criteria.


Code: ratio
Display: Ratio
Definition:
The measure is a ratio scoring measure, defined as the result of a ratio calculation. This is similar to a proportion scoring, with the exception that the numerator and denominator may be drawn from different initial populations. Ratio measures typically define initial population(s) and then numerator and denominator inclusion and exclusion criteria.


Code: continuous-variable
Display: Continuous Variable
Definition:
The measure is a continuous variable scoring measure, defined by a measure observation calculation performed for each member of the population. Continuous variable measures typically define an initial population, then measure population inclusion and exclusion criteria, as well as a measure observation.

The covariance is obtained by forming: cov(x,y)=e([x-e(x)][y-e(y)] where e(x), e(y) is the expected value (mean) of variable x and y respectively. Covariance is symmetric so cov(x,y)=cov(y,x). The covariance is usefull when looking at the variance of the sum of the 2 random variables since: var(x+y) = var(x) +var(y) +2cov(x,y) the covariance cov(x,y) is used to obtain the coefficient of correlation cor(x,y) by normalizing (dividing) cov(x,y) but the product of the standard deviations of x and y.

Code: C93152
Display: Relative Risk
Definition:
A measure of the risk of a certain event happening in one group compared to the risk of the same event happening in another group. In cancer research, risk ratios are used in prospective (forward looking) studies, such as cohort studies and clinical trials. A risk ratio of one means there is no difference between two groups in terms of their risk of cancer, based on whether or not they were exposed to a certain substance or factor, or how they responded to two treatments being compared. A risk ratio of greater than one or of less than one usually means that being exposed to a certain substance or factor either increases (risk ratio greater than one) or decreases (risk ratio less than one) the risk of cancer, or that the treatments being compared do not have the same effects.


Code: 0000424

MEDCIN contains more than 175,000 clinical data elements arranged in a hierarchy, with each item having weighted links to relevant diagnoses. The clinical data elements are organized into six basic termtypes designed to accommodate information relevant to a clinical encounter. The basic termtypes in MEDCIN's terminological hierarchy are as follows:

Symptoms History Physical Examination Tests Diagnoses Therapy

Within this basic structure, MEDCIN terms are further organized in a ten level terminological hierarchy, supplemented by an optional, multi-hierarchical diagnostic index. For example, the symptom of "difficulty breathing" is placed in the terminological hierarchy as a subsidiary (or "child") finding of "pulmonary symptoms" although the presence (or absence) of difficulty breathing can related to conditions as diverse as myocardial infarction, bronchitis, pharyngeal foreign bodies, asthma, pulmonary embolism, etc. MEDCIN's diagnostic index provides more than 800 such links for difficulty breathing.

The following inter-related definitions recently circulated by us to the HL7 Vocabulary Technical Committee explain the scope of what we mean by "drug product" and "active ingredient." (A definition for "drug ingredient" is also provided here because the definition of "active ingredient" is reliant on this term.)

Drug Product A drug product is a manufactured or extemporaneously-compounded physiologically-active material intended by the preparer to achieve therapeutic, diagnostic, or preventative effects via biochemical mechanisms when applied to an epithelial surface or placed in an internal body space of a targeted organism.

Drug Ingredient A drug ingredient is a chemical compound or biologic agent that occurs in a drug product.

Active Ingredient An active ingredient is a drug ingredient that mediates one or more of the intended therapeutic, diagnostic, or preventative effects of a drug product and is present in sufficient quantities to achieve such effects according to the allopathic tradition of healthcare practice.
