Variable Name: DEMONUM{x} where { x } ranges from 1 to 5

Label: Claim Demonstration Identification Number

Effective with Version H, the number assigned to identify a demo. This field is also used to denote special processing (a.k.a. Special Processing Number, SPN). NOTE: Prior to Version H, Demo ID was stored in the redefined Claim Edit Group, 4th occurrence, positions 3 and 4. During the H conversion, this field was populated with data throughout history (as appropriate either by moving ID on Version G or by deriving from specific demo criteria). 01 = Nursing Home Case-Mix and Quality: NHCMQ (RUGS) Demo -- testing PPS for SNFs in 6 states, using a case-mix classification system based on resident characteristics and actual resources used. The claims carry a RUGS indicator and one or more revenue center codes in the 9,000 series. NOTE1: Effective for SNF claims with NCH weekly process date after 2/8/96 (and service date after 12/31/95) -- beginning 4/97, Demo ID '01' was derived in NCH based on presence of RUGS phase # '2','3' or '4' on incoming claim; since 7/97, CWF has been adding ID to claim. NOTE2: During the Version H conversion, Demo ID '01' was populated back to NCH weekly process date 2/9/96 based on the RUGS phase indicator (stored in Claim Edit Group, 3rd occurrence, 4th position, in Version G). 02 = National HHA Prospective Payment Demo -- testing PPS for HHAs in 5 states, using two alternate methods of paying HHAs: per visit by type of HHA visit and per episode of HH care. NOTE1: Effective for HHA claims with NCH weekly process date after 5/31/95 -- beginning 4/97, Demo ID '02' was derived in NCH based on HCFA/ CHPP-supplied listing of provider # and start/ stop dates of participants. NOTE2: During the Version H conversion, Demo ID '02' was populated back to NCH weekly process date 6/95 based on the CHPP criteria. 03 = Telemedicine Demo -- testing covering traditionally noncovered physician services for medical consultation furnished via two-way, interactive video systems (i.e. teleconsultation) in 4 states. The claims contain line items with 'QQ' HCPCS code. NOTE1: Effective for physician/supplier (nonDMERC) claims with NCH weekly process date after 12/31/96 (and service date after 9/30/96) -- since 7/97, CWF has been adding Demo ID '03' to claim. NOTE2: During Version H conversion, Demo ID '03' was populated back to NCH weekly process date 1/97 based on the presence of 'QQ' HCPCS on one or more line items. 04 = United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) Managed Care Demo -- testing risk sharing for Part A services, paying special capitation rates for all UMWA beneficiaries residing in 13 designated counties in 3 states. Under the demo, UMWA will waive the 3-day qualifying hospital stay for a SNF admission. The claims contain TOB '18X','21X','28X' and '51X'; condition code = W0; claim MCO paid switch = not '0'; and MCO contract # = '90091'. NOTE: Initially scheduled to be implemented for all SNF claims for admission or services on 1/1/97 or later, CWF did not transmit any Demo ID '04' annotated claims until on or about 2/98. 05 = Medicare Choices (MCO encounter data) demo -- testing expanding the type of Managed Care plans available and different payment methods at 16 MCOs in 9 states. The claims contain one of the specific MCO Plan Contract # assigned to the Choices Demo site. NOTE1: Effective for all claim types with NCH weekly process date after 7/31/97 -- CWF adds Demo ID '05' to claim based on the presences of the MCO Plan Contract #. NOTE2: During the Version H conversion, Demo ID '05' was populated back to NCH weekly process date 8/97 based on the presence of the Choices indicator (stored as an alpha character crosswalked from MCO plan contract # in the Claim Edit Group, 4th occurrence, 2nd position, in Version 'G'). 06 = Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Demo -- testing bundled payment (all-inclusive global  pricing) for hospital + physician services related to CABG surgery in 7 hospitals in 7 states. The inpatient claims contain a DRG '106' or '107'. NOTE1: Effective for Inpatient claims and physician/supplier claims with Claim Edit Date no earlier than 6/1/91 (not all CABG sites started at the same time) -- on 5/1/97, CWF started transmitting Demo ID '06' on the claim. The FI adds the ID to the claim based on the presence of DRG '106' or '107' from specific providers for specified time periods; the carrier adds the ID to the claim based on receiving 'Daily Census List' from parti - cipating hospitals. Demo ID '06' will end once Demo ID '07' is implemented. NOTE2: During the Version H conversion, any claims where Medicare is the primary payer that were not already identified as Demo ID '06' (stored in the redefined Claim Edit Group, 4th occurrence, positions 3 and 4, Version G) were annotated based on the follow - ing criteria: Inpatient - presence of DRG '106' or '107' and a provider number=220897, 150897, 380897,450897,110082,230156 or 360085 for specified service dates; noninstitutional - presence of HCPCS modifier (initial and/or second) = 'Q2' and a carrier number =00700/31143 00630,01380,00900,01040/00511,00710,00623, or 13630 for specified service dates. 07 = Participating Centers of Excellence (PCOE) Demo -- testing a negotiated all-inclusive pricing arrangement (bundled rates) for highcost acute care cardiovascular and orthopedic procedures performed in 60-100 premier facili - ties in the Chicago and San Francisco Regions or by current CABG providers. The inpatient claims will contain a DRG '104','105','106', '107','112','124','125','209',or '471'; the related physician/supplier claims will contain the claim payment denial reason code = 'D'. NOTE: The demo is on HOLD. The FI and carrier will add Demo ID '07' to claim. 08 = Provider Partnership Demo -- testing per-case payment approaches for acute inpatient hospitalizations, making a lump-sum payment (combining the normal Part A PPS payment with the Part B allowed charges into a single fee schedule) to a Physician/Hospital Organization for all Part A and Part B services associated with a hospital admission. From 3 to 6 hospitals in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions may participate in the demo. NOTE: The demo is on HOLD. The FI and carrier will add Demo ID '08' to claim. 15 = ESRD Managed Care (MCO encounter data) - - testing open enrollment of ESRD beneficiaries and capitation rates adjusted for patient treatment needs at 3 MCOs in 3 States. The claims contain one of the specific MCO Plan Contract # assigned to the ESRD demo site. NOTE: Effective 10/1/97 (but not actually implemented at a site until 1/1/98) for all claim types -- the FI and carrier add Demo ID '15' to claim based on the presence of the MCO plan contract #. 30 = Lung Volume Reduction Surgery (LVRS) or National Emphysema Treatment Trial (NETT) Clinical Study -- evaluating the effectiveness of LVRS and maximum medical therapy (including pulmonary rehab) for Medicare beneficiaries in last stages of emphysema at 18 hospitals nationally, in collaboration with NIH. NOTE: Effective for all claim types (except DMERC) with NCH weekly process date after 2/27/98 (and service date after 10/31/97) -- the FI adds Demo ID '30' based on the presence of a condition code = EY; the participating physician (not the carrier) adds ID to the noninstitutional claim. DUE TO THE SENSITIVE NATURE OF THIS CLINICAL TRIAL AND UNDER THE TERMS OF THE INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT WITH NIH, THESE CLAIMS ARE PROCESSED BY CWF AND TRANSMITTED TO HCFA BUT NOT STORED IN THE NEARLINE FILE (access is restricted to study evaluators only). 31 = VA Pricing Special Processing (SPN) -- not really a demo but special request from VA due to court settlement; not Medicare services but VA inpatient and physician services submitted to FI 00400 and Carrier 00900 to obtain Medicare pricing -- CWF WILL PROCESS VA CLAIMS ANNOTATED WITH DEMO ID '31', BUT WILL NOT TRANSMIT TO HCFA (not in Nearline File). 37 = Medicare Coordinated Care Demonstration -- to test whether coordinated care services furnished to certain beneficiaries improve outcomes of care and reduce Medicare expenditures under Part A and Part B. There will be at least 9 Coordinated Care Entities (CCEs). The selected entities will be assigned a provider number specifically for the demonstration services. NOTE: The demo is on HOLD. The FI and carrier will add Demo ID '37' to claim. 38 = Physician Encounter Claims - the purpose of this demo id is to identify the physician encounter claims being processed at the HCFA Data Center (HDC). This number will help EDS in making the claim go through the appropriate processing logic, which differs from that for fee-for-service. **NOT IN NCH -- AVAILABLE IN NMUD.** NOTE: Effective October, 2000. Demo ids will not be assigned to Inpatient and Outpatient encounter claims. 39 = Centralized Billing of Flu and PPV Claims -- The purpose of this demo is to facilitate the processing carrier, Trailblazers, paying flu and PPV claims based on payment localities.
