Health Economics
Cost and insurance data in OMOP. These tables are heavily used in claims-derived OMOP databases but sparse in EHR-derived instances like Emory's. If your study requires detailed cost or payer data, check our Known Issues page for current coverage.
-
Cost
Charges, allowed amounts, patient out-of-pocket, and payer payments linked to clinical events. Maps to billing and revenue cycle data.
-
Payer Plan Period
Spans of insurance coverage under specific plans and payers. Maps to registration and eligibility feeds. Enables continuous enrollment filters.
Limited at Emory
As a primarily EHR-derived OMOP instance, Emory's cost and payer data is limited. These tables become much richer when linked with claims data. See individual table pages for details on what's currently populated.
