Hospital Inpatient Discharges (SPARCS De-Identified): 2015

The Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) Inpatient De-identified File contains discharge level detail on patient characteristics, diagnoses, treatments, services, and charges. This data file contains basic record level detail for the discharge. The de-identified data file does not contain data that is protected health information (PHI) under HIPAA. The health information is not individually identifiable; all data elements considered identifiable have been redacted. For example, the direct identifiers regarding a date have the day and month portion of the date removed.

全州规划与研究合作系统（Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System，SPARCS）匿名化住院患者数据文件，包含患者特征、诊断、治疗、服务及费用的出院记录级详细信息。本数据集涵盖每条出院记录的基础级详细内容。该匿名化数据文件不含符合《健康保险流通与责任法案》（Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act，HIPAA）定义的受保护健康信息（Protected Health Information，PHI），其中的健康信息均无法进行个体识别；所有被认定为可识别个体的数据元素均已完成脱敏处理。例如，与日期相关的直接标识符已移除日期中的日和月部分。
