Adjustment of -

Hospital Utilization

Rates

United States, 1965–80

This report presents rates of discharges

from short-stay non-Federal hospitals by

age and sex for 1965–80 calculated

using the civilian noninstitutional ized and

civilian resident population. The estimates

of number of discharges are based on data

abstracted from a national sample of

records of discharged patients. Changes in

discharge rates that result from the choice

of population estimates are discussed, and

a ratio for converting rates based on the

civilian noninstitutiona lized population to

rates based on the civilian resident

population is provided. Trends in discharge

rates from 1965-82 are described.

Adjustment of Hospital

Utilization Rates

Introduction

The National Center for Health Statistics has collected

data on patients discharged from short-stay non-Federal hospitals by means of the National Hospital Discharge Survey since

1965. Throughout the period of 1965–80, the estimates of rates

of discharges and days of care were calculated using civilian

noninstitutionalized population estimates ffom the U.S. Bureau

of the Census. Beginning with 1981 data, however, the civilian

resident population replaced the civilian noninstitutionalized

population as the denominator for estimating hospital utilization

rates. In this report previously published hospital discharge

rates based on the civilian noninstitutionalized population are

presented along with revised rates calculated using the civilian

resident population for 1965–80 by sex and age.

The National Hospital Discharge Survey is a continuous

survey of patients discharged from noninstitutional general

and specialty hospitals, excluding military and Veterans Administration hospitals, that have an average length of stay of

less than 30 days. Data are collected in the survey about characteristics of the patients, their lengths of stay, diagnoses, surgical procedures, and the size, location, and ownership of the

hospitals from which they are discharged. The patient data are

abstracted from the face sheets of a sample of inpatient medical

records in a sample of hospitals. For example, in 1965, 296

“hospitals participated in the survey submitting approximately

100,000 abstracts, and in 1980,420 hospitals took part in the

survey supplying about 224,000 abstracts. Appendix I contains

a brief description of the sample design, data collection procedures, and estimation process. A report has been published

that provides a detailed description of the National Hospital

Discharge Survey design and estimation techniques.l
Discussion

Background

A rationale for use of the civilian noninstitutionalized population(CNP) to calculate rates from National Hospital Discharge Survey (NHDS) data is not provided in published or

unpublished documents on the survey design or data analysis

of the NHDS. The CNP may have been chosen so that rates

produced from the various population-based surveys of the National Center for Health Statistics would be consistent. For the

two population-based surveys begun before 1965 (the National

Health Interview Survey and the National Health and Nutrition

Examination Survey, originally the Health Examination Survey),

the CNP had already been selected to compute rates.

The choice of population also may have been influenced

by the exclusion from the survey of hospital units of institutions,

such as infirmaries in State mental hospitals and prison hospitals.

If persons in institutions were treated for medical problems

exclusively in institutional hospitals, their hospitalizations would

not be within the scope of the survey. It would, therefore, have

seemed logical to use population estimates that excluded institutionalized persons. However, because, institutions are not usually equipped to perform the diagnostic or surgical procedures

necessary to treat many illnesses, persons in institutions are

admitted to show-stay hospitals. This is especially true of nursing homes, which frequently transfer patients to shoti-stay hospitals for treatment of acute conditions. Thus, institutionalized

persons should be considered within the scope of the survey,

and because they were not included in the population estimates

used to calculate NHDS rates, the rates of hospital use published from 1965–80 were generally overestimated.

This problem first came to light because of discrepancies

in the hospital utilization rates from the NHDS and the Medicare progmun. Medicare is a nationwide health program primarily providing health benefits to persons 65 years of age and

over. The program reimburses hospital charges in part or full

for about 92 percent of the discharges of patients 65 yearsof

age and over from non-FederaI short-stay hospitals. National

estimates of the hospital use of Medicare patients are derived

from a 20-percent sample of Medicare records. In the late

1970’s the Medicare hospital utilization rates were found to be

lower than the NHDS rates, and although the difference in

rates was not statistically significant, the discrepancy was consistent from year to year.

In a detailed examination of these two sets of hospital utilization rates, it was found that the estimated total numbers of

discharges from the two sources were comparable, taking into

account that the Medicare program served only part of patients

65 years of age and over. It was evident then, that the population

estimates were the source of the rate differences. The Medicare rates were based on the Medicare enrollment population,

which included institutionalized persons, but the NHDS population estimates excluded this segment of the population. When

the discharge rates from NHDS data were recomputed using

the civilian resident population (CRP) rather than the CNP,

the results were more comparable to those from Medicare data.

Consideration of these findings led to the recognition that the

CRP more accurately reflected the population at risk.

Changes in rates

In general, the discharge rates based on the CRP were

lower than the rates based on the CNP. As can be seen in

figure 1, the effect on total discharge rates was small. From

1965 through 1969 there was less than a 1 percent difference

in the two sets of rates. The difference grew in the 1970’s, but

still reached only 3.3 percent in 1979. The effects on the discharge rates of males and females were similar (figure 2), reflected in lower rates based on the CRP than based on the

CNP for both sexes.

The change in population had different effects on the discharge rates of different age groups (figure 3), For the group

under 15 years of age, rates based on the CRP were higher

than rates based on the CNP from 1965 through 1969. This

results from using more current CRP data (adjusted from the

1970 census) than CNP data, as is discussed in more detail

later. For all the other age groups, and the group under 15

years of age after 1969, the CRP-based rates were lower than

the CNP-based rates. The changes in rates were small for the

groups 15-44 years and 45–64 years of age. For the group

65–74 years of age, CRP-based rates were between 4.9 and

5.6 percent lower than CNP-based rates in the 1960’s, but the

difference decreased to between 2.5 and 3.1 percent in the

1970’s. For the group 75 years of age and over, differences in

the CRP- and CNP-based rates were between 5.3 ancl 5.5 percent in the 1960’s the differences increased in the 1970’s, reaching 14.1 percent in 1979.

The changes in discharge rates were not due entirely to the

addition of institutionalized persons to the population. The CRP

estimates in this report were based on more recent U.S. Bureau

of the Census data than were available when the CNP estimates

were used in earlier publications. The 1965–69 CNP estimates

were based on the 1960 census, but the CRP estimates for

these years were adjusted following the 1970 census. Likewise,

the 1970–79CNP estimates were based on the 1970 census

while the CRP estimates for 1970-80 were adjusted using the

1980 census data. Thus, even if the CRP had been used to

compute discharge rates from 1965–79, the rates based on the

adjusted CRP would have changed.

To illustrate this point, discharge rates for 1976 are presented in table A based on the CNP and CRP estimates from

the 1970 census and the CRP estimates adjusted after the 1980

census. The differences in the rates based on the CNP and

those based on the original CRP2 show the effect of the addition of institutionalized persons to the population estimates.

These differences ranged from 0.3 percent for the age group

under 15 years to 2.5 percent for the group 65–74 years of age

and 9.8 percent for the group 75 years of age and over. The

greater effect on the older age groups would be expected because the proportion of the population that is institutionalized

increases with age. The differences between the rates based on

the two sets of CRP’S demonstrate the effects of the adjustment

of population estimates after the 1980 census. For 1976 the

adjustment of the population estimate had a greater effect on

the total discharge rate and the rates of age groups under 45

years of age than did the addition of institutionalized persons.

The CRP-based rates that were higher than CNP-based

rates can be explained by the adjustments to the CRP following

a decennial census. While the addition of institutionalized persons always increased the population estimates, the adjustments

could increase or decrease them. For the age group under 15

years of age, which has a relatively small pcent of institutionalized persons, adjustments that decreased estimates were

not always offset by the addition of the institutionalized population. Thus, the adjusted CRP for this age group was occasionally smaller than the CNP, which made the CRP-based

rates higher than the CNP-based rates.

The lack of an adjustment factor helps explain why the

CNP- and CRP-based discharge rates for 1980 were generally

more similar than were the two sets of rates during the 1970’s.

Because the 1980 CNP and CRP were both based on the 1980

census, differences in the rates for 1980 were the result only of

the addition of the institutionalized population.

In addition to the population changes, discharge rates were

affected by changes in the universe of hospitals sampled for

NHDS. From 1965 through 1971 the hospitals sampled in the

survey were only those that had been operating in 1963, but

over time new hospitals had come into existence. The universe

was updated and new hospitals were added to the sample in

1972, 1975, 1977, 1979, and 1981. As a result, the estimated

number of discharges jumped in each of these years, raising

both the CNP- and CRP-based rates. While on the average the

estimated number of discharges increased less than 2 percent a

year, the 1972 estimate was up 7.4 percenb the 1975 estimate

3.1 percent, the 1977 estimate 4.5 percent, and the 1979 estimate 3.2 percent over the preceding year’s estimate. These

increases, especially the 1972 increase, are reflections of the

updated universe as well as actual increases in the number of

discharges.

Use of the detailed tables

The detailed tables in this report (tables 1– 16) contain

estimates of the CNP, CRP, a ratio of these two population

estimates, and hospital discharge rates based on each population estimate for every year from 1965 through 1980. This

information can be used to convert the CNP-based rates from

earlier publications of NHDS data to rates based on CRP. A

list of NHDS publications is presented in appendix III.

One way to use tables 1– 16 is simply to examine the rates

based on the CRP by sex or age for a year or a series of years.

For example, if there is an interest in the discharge rates of

males 55–64 years of age at 5-year intervals, the ClW-based

rates can be taken from table 1 for 1965 (196.0), table 6 for

1970 (186.2), table 11 for 1975 (219.4), and table 16 for 1980

(228.3).

The ratio of CNP to CRP in tables 1-16 can be used as a

measure of the percent increase or decrease in a CNP’-based

rate that results from the conversion to the CRP-based rate.

The percent change is found by subtracting the ratio from one

and multiplying by 100. For example, a CNP/CRJ? ratio of

0.940 indicates that the rate based on the CRP is 6 percent less

than the CNP-baaed rate:

(1 –0.940)X 100=6

Thus, the magnitude of the rate change can be examined by

looking at the CNP/CRP ratio.

The CNP/CRP ratio also can be used for easy conversion

of additional CNP-based rates to rates based on the CRP. For

f
Trends in discharge rates

While the focus of this report is on differences between

CNP- and CRP-based discharge rates, it is interesting to note

the changes in the CRP-based discharge rates over time. The

discharge rates for 1981 and 1982 were included in figures 1–3

so that rates could be examined over the 18 years for which

data are available from NHDS. As was discussed earlier, the

NHDS sample was first updated in 1972 and probably produced underestimates of discharges for several of the preceding

years.

The total discharge rate grew from 150 per 1,000 CRP in

1965 to 168 per 1,000 CRP in 1982, a 12-percent increase.

The discharge rate for males increased 16 percent from 1965-

82, while the rate for females increased only 9 percent. However, the female discharge rate was 48 percent higher than the

male rate in 1965 and remained 40 percent higher in 1982.

The discharge rate for the group under 15 years of age

changed very little during this 18-year period: It was 72 per

1,000 CRP in 1965 and71 per 1,000 CRP in 1982. For patients

15-44 years of age discharge rates decreased 17 percent from

1965 through 1982, and 12 percent between 1965-72. The

decrease between 1965-72 was probably related to the

20-percent decline in birth rates during this period.1

Discharge rates increased for patients 45 years and over

from 1965–82. The group 45–64 years of age showed a rate

increase of 13 percent, which was almost all during the period

1972–82. In contrast, the discharge rate for patients 65-74

years of age increased 52 percent from 1965-82, and much of

this increase, 30 percent, was from 1965–72. However, the

greatest rate change was for patients 75 years of age and over

whose dischmge rate was 314 per 1,000 CRP in 1965 and511

per 1,000 CRP in 1982, a 63-percent increase. Patients in this

age group accounted for 7 percent of all discharges in 1965,

and increased to 14 percent in 1982.

Statistical design of the National Hospital

Discharge Survey

Scope of the survey-The National Hospital Discharge

Survey (NHDS) encompasses patients discharged from noninstitutional hospitals, exclusive of military and Veterans Administration hospitals, located in the 50 States and the District

of Columbia. Only hospitals with six or more beds for patient

use and those in which the average length of stay for all patients

is less than 30 days are included in the survey.Discharges of

patients from Federal hospitals are not included.

Sample size—The Master Facility Inventory of Hospitals

and Institutions is the universe from which the NHDS sample

is drawn. A detailed description of the development, cofitents,

maintenance plans, and assessment of coverage was published

in 1965.4

The original universe for the survey was made up of 6,965

hospitals contained in the 1963 Master Facility Inventory of

Hospitals and Institutions. As shown in table I, the universe

was updated five times from 1965–82 and consisted of 8,080

hospitals in 1982. The sample for the survey, which was composed of315 hospitals in 1965, has been increased six times

and contained 550 hospitals in 1982. Each year some of the

sampled hospitals refused to participate in the survey or were

found to be out of scope either because they had gone out of

business or failed to meet the definition of a shod-stay hospital.

Thus, the number of hospitals participating in the survey varied

from year to year, but grew from 296 in 1965 to 426 in 1982.

The number of abstracts of medical records provided by participating hospitals also varied from year to year but increased

from approximately 100,000 in 1965 to 214,000 in 1982.

Sample design—A two-stage sampling design is used in

the survey. The first stage is the selection of the sample of

hospitals. All hospitals with 1,000 or more beds in the universe

of short-stay hospitals are included in the survey, while the

hospitals with fewer than 1,000 beds are stratified, the primary

strata being 24 size-by-region classes. A controlled selection

technique is used to allocate hospitals with each primary stratum so that the hospitals in the sample are properly distributed

with regard to ownership and geographic division. Sample hospitals are drawn with probabilities ranging from certainty for

the largest hospitals to 1 in 40 for the smallest hospitals,

The second stage is selection of a sample of discharges

within sampled hospitals. Discharges are selected with an inverse relationship to the probability of hospital selection. In

hospitals with 1,000 or more beds, the sampling probability is

1 in 100 while in hospitals with less than 50 beds it is 4 in 10.

This sampling is done to compensate for hospitals that were

selected with probabilities proportionate to their size class and

to insure that the overall probability of selecting a discharge is

approximately the same in each size hospital.

In nearly all hospitals, the samples of discharges are selected

from the daily listing sheet of discharges. The sample of discharges is selected by a random technique, usually on the basis

of the terminal digit(s) of the patient’s medical record number,

which is assigned when the patient is admitted to the hospital.

If the hospital’s daily listing does not show the medical record

numbers, the sample is selected by starting with a randomly

selected discharge and taking every kth discharge thereafter.

Data collection and processing

The sample selection and transcription of information from

the hospital records to abstract forms are performed by either

the medical records department of the hospital or by personnel

of the U.S. Bureau of the Census acting for the National Center

for Health Statistics, or by both. The abstract form currently

used in sample hospitals is shown in figure 1. The content of the

form has been the same since 1977 when the following items,

which were not on the abstract forms used from 1965–76, were

added residence of patient (zip code), expected source(s) of

payment, disposition of patient, and dates of procedures. Completed abstract forms for each sample hospital are shipped,

along with sample selection control sheets, to a regional oftlce

of the Bureau of the Census. Every shipment is reviewed, and

each abstract form is checked for completeness. Abstracts are

then sent to the National Center for Health Statistics for processing.

Imputations are made for some missing items. The age and

sex of the patient are not stated on the face sheet of the patient’s

medical record for less than one-fourth of 1 percent of the discharges. If these items are missing, imputations are made by

assigning the patient an age or sex consistent with the age or

sex of other patients with the same diagnostic code.

Reliabihy of estimates

Estivzation-Statistics produced by NHDS are derived

by a complex estimating procedure. The basic unit of estimation

is the sample inpatient discharge abstract. The estimating procedure used to produce essentially unbiased national estimates

in the NHD S has three principal components: inflation by reciprocals of the probabilities of sample selection, adjustment for

nonresponse, and ratio adjustment to fixed totals. These components of estimation are described in appendix I of two earlier

publications.5f’

NOTE: A list of references follows the text.

Measurement errors-As in any survey, results are subject

to nonsampling or measurement errors, which include errors

because of hospital nonresponse, missing abstracts, information

incompletely or inaccurately recorded on abstract forms, and

processing errors.

Sampling errors-The standard error is primarily a measure of the variability attributed to a value obtained from a sample as an estimate of a population. In NHDS reports it also

reflects part of the measurement error. The value that would

have been obtained if a complete enumeration of the population

had been made will be contained in an interval represented by

the sample estimate plus or minus 1 standard error about 68

out of 100 times and plus or minus 2 standard errors about 95

out of 100 times.

While the standard error of one statistic is generally different from that of another, even when the two come from the

same survey, approximate relative standard errors have been

prepared for NHDS statistics that are applicable to a wide

variety of estimates from the survey. These are available in the

appendixes of the Series 13 reports listed in appendix 111.

Population estimates

The population estimates used in this report are from pub

Iished and unpublished estimates for the U.S. civilian resident

and civilian noninstitutionalized population on July 1 of the

data year provided by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. The

estimates by age and sex are presented in detailed tables 1-16

and are consistent with population estimates published in Current Population Reports, Series P–25.

Appendix 11

Definitions of terms

Hospitals—In this report a hospital is a short-stay general

or specialty hospital having six or more beds for inpatient use

and an average length of stay of less than 30 days. Federal

hospitals and hospital units of institutions are not included.

Patient—A person who is formally admitted to the inpatient setiice of a shofi-stay hospital for observation, care, diagnosis, or treatment is considered a patient. In this report the

number of patients refers to the number of discharges during

the year, including any multiple discharges of the same individual from one or more shofi-stay hospitals. Infants admitted

on the day of birth, directly or by transfer from another medical

facility, with or without mention of a disease, disorder, or immaturity, are included. All newborn infants, defined as those

admitted by birth to the hospital, are excluded from the tables

in this report. The terms “patient” and “inpatient” are used

synonymously.

Discharge—Discharge is the formal release of a patient by

the hospita~ that is, the termination of a period of hospitalization by death or by disposition to place of residence, nursing

home, or another hospital. The terms “dkchges” and““Patients discharged” are used synonymously.

Discharge rate—The ratio of the number of hospital discharges during a year to the number of persons in the civilian

resident or noninstitutionalized population on July 1 of that

year determines the discharge rate.

Population—Civilian resident population is the resident

population excluding members of the armed forces. Civilian

noninstitutionalized population is the civilian population not

residing in institutions.

Age—Patient’s age refers to age at birthday prior to admission to the hospital inpatient service.
