Definitions

Vendor Software Application The Hospital Data Dictionary describes the format of files electronically transmitted to the Department of Health (TDH) EMS/Trauma Registry. Trauma registry software does not have to list fields or values in the same order as presented in the data dictionary, for the purpose of data entry, as long as the data file sent to the state is in the correct format.

Injury Website The Injury website can be found by using an Internet browser to access http://www.tdh.state.tx.us/injury/. The Trauma Registry section of this website includes hospital/EMS/county/software codes, participations reports, hospital and EMS Trauma Registry Guidelines.

Data Field Number The position of each field within the record. The order in which the field should appear within the record relative to other fields in the record contained in the data file to be transmitted to the EMS/Trauma Registry.

Data Field Name The name of the field in the database.

Required/Optional Defines whether or not entering/assigning a value to the field is required. “Required” means that a valid value MUST be entered/assigned. “Required – Conditional” means that a valid value MUST be entered/assigned if the defined conditions are true. “Optional” means data entry is at the discretion of each individual hospital. “Do Not Report” means that data should not be entered because the EMS/Trauma Registry no longer uses the data. If your software automatically inserts data into these fields, it will be ignored. The “Do Not Report” fields were left in the data dictionary so that no one would have to drastically alter their current data submission software. Any data fields not containing data must still be delimited with a tab (see 2002 Data File Formats).

Max. Length of Field, Type of Field, and Value Range These describe the formatting requirements of the field.

DEFN The definition of the field.

Values These are the acceptable values that can be electronically transmitted to the EMS/Trauma Registry. The typical format is:

[value or value range] = [definition of value or value range]

Definitions of values and terms are supplied where appropriate but should NOT be transmitted to the EMS/Trauma Registry.

File Format for Electronic Transmission Before sending your data to the Texas EMS/Trauma Registry, please make sure that the order of the fields for each record in your file is the same as the order described by the Data Field Number. The Texas EMS/Trauma Registry computer accepts only ASCII data delimited with TABS. There should be a TAB after each field, the only exception being the last field of a record. More information concerning file format can be found in the next section called 2002 Data File Formats.

2002 Data File Formats

Due to recent legislation, and the Texas Department of Health TRAC-IT initiative, the Texas EMS/Trauma Registry (herein referred to as The Registry) will make some exciting changes. New hospital and EMS data sets will be effective starting January 2002. It will be more important than ever to send your data files containing the data sets in the correct format. All data files that are sent to The Registry must be in ASCII tab-delimited format. A tab must follow every field except the last field of each record. Even if there is no data recorded for a particular field, or the field is optional, a tab must still be placed in that field’s position. A new line feed and carriage return must follow every record, after the last field of each record, except for the last record of the file. The first line of the data file must contain the first record to be transmitted and the last line of the data file must contain the last record to be transmitted. The order of the records in the data file has no effect on how they are processed. Warning: Opening and saving a data file with text editors (MS Word, WordPad, WordPerfect) can corrupt the data file with special codes inserted by the text editor. There are three different record lengths that may be sent for each data set. These three lengths correspond to the major sections of the new data sets. The hospital and EMS data sets are both divided into three major sections: Main Fields, Research Fields, and Desired Fields. Main Fields is not the formal name of the first section as presented in each data dictionary but that is how the first section of fields will be referred to in this explanation. The Main Fields section contains the minimum standard data set that everyone is required to send to The Registry. A file sent in the Main Format must contain all of the fields in the Main Fields section of the appropriate data set. The Research Fields section contains fields that are all optional. A file sent in the Research Format must contain all of the fields in the Main Fields section of the appropriate data set as well as ALL nine fields of the Research Fields section. The Desired Fields section contains fields that are all optional and include audit/QI filters typically used by hospitals and EMS. A file sent in the Desired Format must contain all of the fields in the Main Fields section of the appropriate data set, all nine fields of the Research Fields section, AND all of the fields of the Desired Fields section. In simple English, if you only wish to meet State requirements, you must send a data file with all of the fields listed in the Main Fields section of each data set. If you wish to send data which includes any of the Research Fields, you must send all of the Main Fields and all of the Research Fields, even if you did not use all of them. If you send data which includes any of the Desired Fields, your data file must include all of the fields from all three sections. Following is a chart which diagrams the number of fields per record you must have in each line of the data file based on the format you are using.

This will generally involve patients who are recipients of Aid to Families with Dependent Children or Social Security Income, pregnant women and children below the Federal poverty level (FPL), as will as certain aged, blind, disabled, and institutionalized persons below the FPL, and other medically needy persons. Dual eligibles, that is those patients who receive both Medicare and Medicaid support should be coded as Medicare since Medicaid contributions to the hospital bill for dual eligibles are most often supplementary to the primary payer, Medicare. Individuals covered under Medicaid 1115 or similar plans whose hospital care is paid for via public Medicaid funds yet overseen by a commercial managed care organization, should be coded as Medicaid and not managed care organization patients.

02 = Medicare Includes any trauma patient receiving federal funding of their inpatient medical bills under Title XVIII of the Social Security Act. This will generally involve patients 65 or more years of age, patients entitled to disability benefits for 24 months or more, end- stage renal disease patients, and certain otherwise non-covered persons who elect to buy into the program. Dual eligibles, that is those patients who receive both Medicare and Medicaid support should be coded as Medicare since Medicaid contributions to the hospital bill for dual eligibles are most often supplementary to the primary payer, Medicare.

Other commercial plans include any commercial health insurance plan that does not enroll physicians as part of a network or require that its physicians obtain authorization prior to hospitalization of non-emergent patients. Such plans include fee-for- service coverage and managed indemnity organizations (these organizations may require that their physicians obtain authorization prior to hospitalization of non-emergent patients, although they are not classified as managed care organizations because they do not enroll physicians as part of a network).

04 = Champus The civilian Health and Medical Program for the Uniformed Services is a federal health insurance program for dependents of active and retired members of the uniformed services. Individuals enrolled in a CHAMPUS Prime or similar plan whose hospital care is paid for by CHAMPUS yet overseen by a commercial managed care organization, should be coded as CHAMPUS and not managed care organization patients.

DATA FILE CREATION AND TRANSFER SPECIFICATIONS

There is no single software package being promoted by the Texas Trauma Registry for use by Texas hospitals to fulfill their trauma reporting requirements. Hospitals may use any software as long as they are able to collect and electronically transmit the Texas Hospital Standard Data Set as defined in this document.

Before sending your data to the TDH file server, please make sure that the order of the fields for each record in your file is the same as the order described in this document. TDH file server accepts only ASCII data delimited with TABS. There should be a TAB after each field (required and optional), the only exception being the last field of a record. The total number of TABS for each record should be 116 or if there is a TAB after the last field, the record will contain 117 TABS.

One single file may contain records for more than one hospital provided that the appropriate hospital facility number is accurately completed in the sixth field (FACILNO) for each record.

**************************************************************************************

For data transfer, the following specifications are required:

File name, 8 digit and extension as follows: H ______.___ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 dec

First digit is the letter "H" 2nd – 8th digits = your hospital code obtained from the list of hospital codes provided to you by the Trauma Registry The three decimal places = the day number of the year obtained from a calendar

Example: Parkland Hospital in Dallas is ready to transmit a file on January 15, 2000. The filename should be "H0570935.015"

The file should be transferred using the KERMIT protocol: 9600 – 56,000 bps 8 bit, no parity, 1 stop bit Full duplex

File server phone number is 1-800-242-3562. Upon connection to the file server, transfer file. The file server is available for receiving files 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.

For instructions on how to transfer a file using Windows 3.1 Terminal or Windows95/98 Hyperterminal, please contact the Texas Trauma Registry or visit our web site at www.tdh.state.tx.us/injury/. Instructions are located in the Transmission Handbook.

**************************************************************************************

If this is your first time transferring a file, please notify the Texas Trauma Registry so that the file may be checked for correct data file format. Testing may consist of several test file submissions. The number of test file submissions depends on the percentage and severity of errors. General requirements for a test file submission are: (1) minimum of five patient records and (2) valid and complete patient data.

If you have questions, please call the Texas Trauma Registry at 512/458-7266.
