    JOURNEY TO HEALTH An Analysis of Hospital-Discharged Medical Visits for the Greater Nashua and Milford, NH Region Data Brief BACKGROUND Figure 1: In-State Hospital Choice Among NRPC Residents All licensed hospitals in New Hampshire report patient-level discharge information to the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH DHHS), who also collects data from select rehabilitation hospitals, rehabilitation and psychiatric units within acute care hospitals, and from free-standing ambulatory surgical treat- ment centers that are part of a hospital. These discharge data, known as the New Hampshire Uniform Healthcare Facility Discharge Data Set (UHFDDS), can be released to entities upon request for independent study and analysis. The following analyses are based on a custom report of aggregated UHFDD data for the NRPC region for the years 2016 and 2018. 2018 repre- sents the most current data available from NH DHHS, and 2016 is the latest year for which vis- its to out-of-state facilities is included. Trip types include Inpatient, Outpatient, Emergency Department, and Specialty, but do not distin- guish trips by more specific diagnostic code. For these category breakdowns that resulted in greater than 100 trips, the data could be further grouped into the following age cohorts: 0-19, 20 -40, 45-64, 65-74, and 75+. Table 1: Top 10 In-State Hospitals Among NRPC Residents For any Town/Hospital/Age category for which HOSPITAL VISITS HOSPITAL VISITS trips were between 1-4, NHDHHS reported this inexact range to protect patient confidentiality; in 1.
