Report #4: Healthcare Report <br />Outputs Available: PDF <br />Contents: <br />The Demographic Report contains a comprehensive review of all variables as measured by the <br />U.S. Census. Current year and future year estimates are available based on forecasts. <br />There are numerous variations of this report containing different insights. Please see below for a <br />brief description of each report type: <br />• Major Diagnostic Codes: This output measures healthcare demand based on the major <br />diagnostic categories (MDC), which are determined by dividing all possible principal <br />diagnoses into 25 mutually exclusive diagnosis areas. The diagnoses in each MDC <br />correspond to a single organ system or causation and, in general, are associated with a <br />particular medical specialty. <br />• Cases by DRG: This output measures healthcare demand based on diagnosis -related <br />groups (DRG). DRG is a system used to classify hospital cases into one of 467 groups, <br />with the 467th group being "ungroupable." This system of classification was developed <br />with the intent to identify the "products" that a hospital provides. One example of a <br />"product" is an appendectomy. <br />• Physician Office Visits by Payment Source: This output measures the estimated number <br />of healthcare cases as it relates to the payment type used for the visit. The classifications <br />included are: <br />• Medicaid Insurance Visits • Private Insurance Paid Visits <br />• Medicare Insurance Visits • Self -Pay Visits <br />• No Charge Visits • Unknown Payment Visits <br />• Other Payment for Visits • Workman Comp Insurance Visits <br />6 <br />GROW WITH US. 1-888-2BUXTON buxton@buxtonco.com I www.buxtonco.com <br />Buxton9 <br />
