SPSS Recode and Compute Practice Set

Description

Hi please view the following requirements to complete this assignment on SPSS software. Thank you.The deadline is March 26, 2024.This practice set asks you to recode three variables and compute one new variable. You will need to download the SPSS files attached below (if you have not already saved them to your computer) to complete the assignment. Copy the frequencies for the variables you recode and all the logs into the Word document containing the questions. These datasets and recoded variables will be used in the SPSS practice sets in later Modules 11 and 12.I recommend that you save these SPSS datasets (.sav files) to your computer to use them later; if you don’t save the files, you will need to complete the recodes again.

SPSS Recode and Compute Practice Set
This practice set asks you to recode three variables and compute one new variable. The
recoded variables should all be numeric, and the values must be labeled. Copy the
frequencies for the recoded variables (Questions 1 -3) and all the logs into this document.
Question 1 – Use the Satisfaction_Trust Survey Data.sav file.
Recode “q10” (Doctor Acts in Patient’s Best Interest) into two categories: “Does not act in best
interest” (codes 1-3) through “Acts in best interest” (codes 4-5).
Question 2 – Use the Satisfaction_Trust Survey Data.sav file.
Recode “q4” (Satisfaction with Health Plan) into two categories: “Not satisfied/Somewhat
satisfied” (codes 1-3) through “Satisfied/Very satisfied” (codes 4-5).
Question 3 – Use the Practice SPSS Data.sav file.
Recode TYPE_CNTRL into two categories: Nonprofit and investor. Investor – Corp., Investor –
Indiv., and Investor – Ptnr. should be recoded into “Investor.” All other types should be
included in “Nonprofit.”
Question 4 – Use the Practice SPSS Data.sav file.
Create the variable ALOS (Average Length of Stay). You will need to use the OSHPD Hospital
Quarterly Financial and Utilization Data Files Documentation to find the formula. You only need
to paste the log for this question.

Note on Disproportionate Share Payments and Transfers
Disproportionate Share Payments for Medi-Cal Patient Days (SB 855) (Line No. 566) includes the gross
amount of SB 855 Disproportionate Share (DSH) payments received. Disproportionate Share Funds
Transferred to a Related Public Entity (Line No. 900) is an optional reporting item that is applicable
to county, district, and the University of California hospitals, and reflects DSH payments that a
hospital transfers back to a related entity. As a result, you may want to adjust certain financial data,
such as Total Deductions from Revenue (Line No. 620) and Net Patient Revenue (Line No. 800), to
account for such transfers. Because reporting a DSH Transfer (Line No. 900) is optional, a “zero” could
mean that no DSH transfers were made or that the hospital elected to leave the field blank.

Uncompensated Care
When analyzing “Uncompensated Care”, you must first define it. The most common definition for
“Uncompensated Care” is the sum of Bad Debts (Line No. 545) and Charity – Other (Line No. 595).
However, this definition does not reflect OSHPD’s unique database and reporting requirements. Below
are some issues to consider:

You should use the data associated with the County Indigent Programs (CIP) payer category. This
payer category was established with the passage of California’s Tobacco Tax legislation, and
includes those indigent patients who are the responsibility of a county. Prior to this legislation,
these indigent patients were classified as Other payers and uncollectible amounts were reported as
Charity – Other. These write-offs now appear as CIP Contractual Adjustments.
Keep in mind that CIP Gross Patient Revenue (Line Nos. 370, 375, 470 and 475) measures the
volume of services provided, while CIP Contractual Adjustments (Line Nos. 570 and 575) reflects
the amount of uncollectible charges.

If you want to include non-county indigent patients in your analysis, you need to include the Other
Indigent payer category. This category relates to indigent patients who are NOT the responsibility
of a county. The data for Other Indigent was formerly reported in Other Payers.

Some data users may want to include Teaching Allowances (Line No. 605) in their analysis. This
amount is reported only by the University of California hospitals, and reflects write-offs for services
provided to indigent patients who benefit the hospital’s medical education programs.

Lastly, if you want to use Charity – Other net of any related compensation, you should subtract
Restricted Donations and Subsidies for Indigent Care (Line No. 600) from Charity – Other. As
defined, Provision for Bad Debts (Line No. 545) is reported net of Bad Debt Recoveries.

Definition
The average daily complement of beds (excluding nursery bassinets) physically existing and actually available
for overnight use, regardless of staffing levels. Excludes beds placed in suspense or in nursing units converted
to non-patient care uses which cannot be placed into service within 24 hours.
The dollar value of all additions to property, plant and equipment, including amounts which have the effect of
increasing the capacity, efficiency, life-span, or economy of the operation of an existing capital asset. Includes
additions to construction-in-process.
The total amount of capitated revenue received (per member per month payments) for patients enrolled in
managed care health plans. For 2000, Capitation Premium Revenue is reported separately from Deductions
from Revenue, but still included in Net Patient Revenue.
See Capitation Premium Revenue.
See Capitation Premium Revenue.
See Capitation Premium Revenue.
See Capitation Premium Revenue.
Charity care provided by hospitals to satisfy obligations related to the federal Hill-Burton Program. On some
OSHPD products, Charity – Hill-Burton is combined with Other Adjustments and Allowances.
The difference between gross patient revenue (based on full established charges) for services rendered to
patients who are unable to pay for all or part of the services provided, and the amount paid by or on behalf of
the patient. Includes charity care provided by non-county hospitals to indigent patients who are not the
responsibility of the county.
The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the hospital, or the person in charge of day-to-day operations of the
hospital.
The city in which the hospital is located.
Unique to the University of California Hospitals, Clinical Teaching Support funds cover the cost of treating
certain cases that provide educational benefit as well as the exploration of current medical technology and
techniques. Patients are typically unable to pay for all or part of these services. These funds are not
considered compensation for bad debts. Also known as CTS funds.
The difference between billings at full established rates and amounts received or receivable from third-party
payers under formal contract agreements. See Payer Category.
The County Indigent Programs – Managed Care category includes indigent patients covered under Welfare and
Institutions Code Section 17000 and are covered by a managed care plan funded by a county. This category
was previously reported in the Other Third Parties category.
