network discharge datenet_dsch_dt

The date a member was released from an inpatient facility following treatment by an in-network provider. Used in claims adjudication to calculate length of stay, confirm network participation throughout the episode of care, and apply appropriate contracted reimbursement rates.

network labelnet_lbl

The human-readable display name assigned to a specific provider network tier or network product, such as HMO, PPO, or EPO. Used in member-facing materials, benefits administration, and claims systems to identify which network arrangement governs coverage and cost-sharing for a given service.

network procedure datenet_proc_dt

The date on which a clinical procedure was performed by an in-network provider. Used in claims processing to confirm network participation at the time of service, validate authorization timelines, and apply the correct contracted rate for the procedure performed.

network surgery datenet_surg_dt

The date on which a surgical procedure was performed by an in-network facility or surgeon. Used in claims adjudication to verify active network participation at time of surgery, confirm prior authorization validity, and calculate appropriate contracted reimbursement under the applicable network agreement.

neurology active indicatorneuro_actv_ind

A binary flag indicating whether a neurology service record, referral, or case is currently active within the clinical system. Used in care management and specialty tracking workflows to filter active neurology episodes from historical or closed records for reporting and follow-up purposes.

neurology active statusneuro_actv_sts

A coded value representing the current activity state of a neurology case, referral, or treatment episode, such as active, inactive, pending, or closed. Used in specialty care management systems to monitor ongoing neurological conditions and coordinate follow-up care for patients with disorders of the nervous system.

neurology admission dateneuro_admn_dt

The date a patient was admitted to an inpatient or observation unit specifically for neurological evaluation or treatment. Used in clinical and claims data to track episodes of care for nervous system disorders, calculate length of stay, and support DRG assignment for neurology-related inpatient encounters.

neurology ageneuro_age

The patient's age at the time of a neurology encounter, referral, or diagnosis. Used in clinical documentation and population health analytics to stratify neurological conditions by age group, support age-appropriate treatment protocols, and identify age-related risk patterns in nervous system disorders.

neurology allowed amountneuro_alwd_amt

The maximum dollar amount a payer will reimburse for a neurology service based on the contracted fee schedule or usual and customary rate. Used in claims adjudication to determine patient cost-sharing obligations and calculate the payment owed to the neurologist or neurology facility.

neurology amountneuro_amt

A general monetary value associated with a neurology encounter, service, or transaction, which may represent charges, payments, or adjustments. Used in financial reporting and claims analytics to track the overall cost of neurological services rendered to patients across inpatient, outpatient, and specialty settings.

neurology approval statusneuro_appr_sts

The current authorization state of a neurology service request or referral, such as approved, pending, or denied. Used in utilization management workflows to confirm that prior authorization requirements have been met before neurological procedures or specialist consultations are performed and reimbursed.

neurology approved byneuro_appr_by

The identifier or name of the clinician, care manager, or system user who authorized a neurology service request or referral. Used in utilization management and audit trails to document accountability for approval decisions related to neurological treatments, procedures, or specialist consultations.

neurology arrival timeneuro_arrv_tm

The recorded time at which a patient arrived for a neurology appointment, emergency evaluation, or inpatient admission. Used in clinical operations and quality reporting to measure wait times, assess stroke protocol compliance, and evaluate throughput efficiency in neurology departments.

neurology arrived dateneuro_arrv_dt

The calendar date on which a patient arrived for a neurology-related encounter, including outpatient visits, emergency evaluations, or inpatient admissions. Used in clinical scheduling, claims processing, and quality metrics to establish the service date for neurological care episodes and assess timeliness of specialty access.

neurology assessmentneuro_asmt

The structured or free-text clinical evaluation documenting a neurologist's findings, impressions, and diagnostic conclusions following examination of a patient with a nervous system condition. Used in clinical documentation to support diagnosis coding, treatment planning, and continuity of care for neurological disorders.

neurology balanceneuro_bal

The remaining dollar amount owed on a neurology account after payments, adjustments, and credits have been applied. Used in patient billing and revenue cycle management to track outstanding balances for neurological services and identify accounts requiring follow-up collection activity or payment plan arrangements.

neurology billed amountneuro_bill_amt

The total dollar amount charged by a neurologist or neurology facility for services rendered before payer adjustments, contractual discounts, or patient cost-sharing are applied. Used in claims processing and revenue cycle analytics to assess charge capture accuracy and compare billed versus allowed amounts.

neurology birth dateneuro_birth_dt

The patient's date of birth as recorded in the context of a neurology encounter or clinical record. Used to verify patient identity, calculate age at time of neurological diagnosis or treatment, and support age-stratified analysis of nervous system conditions such as epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, or Parkinson's disease.

neurology blood pressureneuro_bp

The systolic and diastolic arterial pressure measurement recorded during a neurology encounter. Used in clinical documentation to monitor hypertension as a risk factor for stroke and other cerebrovascular conditions, assess neurological medication effects, and track hemodynamic stability in patients with nervous system disorders.

neurology cancelled dateneuro_cncl_dt

The date on which a scheduled neurology appointment, procedure, or service was formally cancelled. Used in clinical scheduling and utilization tracking to monitor cancellation patterns, measure no-show rates, and support rescheduling workflows within neurology departments.
