cc_hier

A dataset used to apply the risk adjustment condition category hierarchies.
The HHS-Hcc risk model uses hierarchical condition categories. This means that
when an individual has e.g. HCC 8 (Metastatic Cancer), they do not also get
the risk score for less serious cancer categories.

datasets

Datasets from most recent CCIIO DIY entry
in a tidy format. These support the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services' (CMS) risk adjustment Do-It-Yourself (DIY) process, which allows
health insurance issuers to calculate member risk profiles under the Health
and Human Services-Hierarchical Condition Categories (HHS-HCC) regression
model. This regression model is used to calculate risk adjustment transfers.
Risk adjustment is a selection mitigation program implemented under the
Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA or Obamacare) in the USA.
Under the ACA, health insurance issuers submit claims data to CMS	in order
for CMS to calculate a risk score under the HHS-HCC regression model.
However, CMS does not inform issuers of their average risk score until after
the data submission deadline. These data sets can be used by issuers to
calculate their average risk score mid-year. More information about risk
adjustment and the HHS-HCC model can be found here:
