Mhos Pedsf

Documentation for the Patient Entitlement and Diagnosis Summary File (PEDSF)
March 28, 2017
MHOS-PEDSF.Docx for MHOS Survey Level File
Selected SEER variables were copied from the Patient Entitlement and Diagnosis File
(PEDSF). These variables are available for MHOS patients found in the SEER file and linked
to Medicare. Not all variables were written to the MHOS survey file because they are either
restricted variables or not applicable to MHOS patients.
SEER Cases diagnosed 1973-2013
PEDSF File created on October 4, 2016
SEER data extracted from November, 2015 SEER Submission
NOTE1: Census data is not included on the PEDSF file but will be sent out in separate files
that can be linked by census tract and zip code.
The SEER information on the PEDSF file has been rearranged to mimic the SEER Research
File and the site variable is now 5 digits long instead of 2.
NOTE2: The SEER program has completed a review of PSA values for prostate cases from
2010-2013 and PSA errors have been corrected for the SEER data release in April 2016.
Prostate cases from 2004-2009 are currently being reviewed. Their PSA data will be added
after the completion of this review. For more information, visit https://seer.cancer.gov/data/psa-
values.html.

COL FIELD LENGTH SOURCE NOTES

22 Date of Death Flag 1 Created Shows the level of agreement between
(dod_flg) at IMS SEER and MEDICARE on the patients
month of death. Dates of death after
12/13 were treated as not dead for
comparison purposes.
0 = Not dead by 12/13.
1 = Dead, both files agree.
2 = Dead, off by 1-3 months.
3 = Dead, off by 4-6 months.
4 = Dead in MEDICARE only,
5 = Dead in SEER only.
6 = Dead but number of months could not
be calculated due to the fact that
month was missing for either SEER
or MEDICARE.
23 Date of Birth Flag 1 Created Shows the level of agreement between
(dob_flg) at IMS SEER and MEDICARE on the patients
month of birth.
0 = Both files agree on birth date.
1 = Birth date off by 1-3 months.
4 = Birth date off by one year
5 = Birth date off by 13-23 months
6 = Birth date off by 2 years

Geographic Information
SEER program data are from the SEER record corresponding to the first diagnosis of
cancer at age 65 or older. Zip codes are from Medicare enrollment file in the year of first

death into groups similar to the incidence

coded as alive if death occurred after
study cutoff. Go to the end of this

2508 NAPIIA Derived API 2 SEER The NAACCR Asian Pacific Islander
Race Identification Algorithm version 1 (NAPIIA v1)
(napiia1-napiia10) uses a combination of NAACCR variables to
(napiia) classify cases directly or indirectly as Asian
Pacific Islander for analytic purposes. This
version of the algorithm is focused on coding
cases with a race code of Asian NOS (race
code 96) to a more specific Asian race
category, using the birthplace and name fields
(first, last, and maiden names). Birthplace can
be used to indirectly assign a specific race to
one of eight Asian race groups (Chinese,
Japanese, Vietnamese, Korean, Asian Indian,
Filipino, Thai, and Cambodian). Names can be
used to indirectly assign a specific race to one
of seven Asian groups (Chinese, Japanese,
Vietnamese, Korean, Asian Indian, Filipino,
and Hmong). Future versions of NAPIIA will
incorporate Pacific Islanders and will
potentially incorporate name lists for Thai,
Cambodian, and Laotians.
Codes are the same as for Race/Ethnicity.

Rural/Urban Continuum as Defined in the 2004 ARF file

(urban/rural code)
The 2003 Rural/Urban Continuum Codes are from Economic Research Service (ERS),
Department of Agriculture. The codes form a classification scheme that distinguishes
metropolitan (metro) counties by the population size of their metro area and nonmetropolitan
(nonmetro) counties by degree of urbanization and adjacency to a metro area or nonmetro areas.
All U.S. counties and county equivalents are grouped according to the official metro status
announced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in June 2003, when the population
and worker commuting criteria used to identify metro counties were applied to results of the 2000
Census.
Metro counties are distinguished by population size of the Metropolitan Statistical Area of
which they are part. Nonmetro counties are classified according to the aggregate size of their
urban population. Within the three urban size categories, nonmetro counties are further identified
by whether or not they have some functional adjacency to a metro area or areas. A nonmetro
county is defined as adjacent if it physically adjoins one or more metro areas, and has at least 2
percent of its employed labor force commuting to central metro counties. Nonmetro counties that
do not meet these criteria are classed as nonadjacent.
In concept, the 2003 version of the Rural-Urban Continuum Codes is comparable with that of
earlier decades. However, OMB made major changes in its metro area delineation procedures
for the 2000 Census, and the Census Bureau changed the way in which rural and urban are
measured. Therefore, the new Rural-Urban Continuum Codes are not fully comparable with
those of earlier years. OMBs changes added some additional metro areas by no longer requiring
that a metro area must have at least 100,000 population if its urbanized area has no place of at
least 50,000 people. More importantly, simplifying the worker commuting criteria that determine
outlying metro counties had the effect of both adding numerous new outlying counties to metro
status while deleting a smaller number that were previously metro.
The Census Bureau made a radical shift in determining rural-urban boundaries by changing
and liberalizing the procedures for delineating urbanized areas of 50,000 or more people, and
abandoning place boundaries in measuring urban or rural population. The procedures used in
defining Urbanized Areas were extended down to clusters of 2,500 or more people, based solely
on population density per square mile.
In earlier versions of the Rural-Urban Continuum Codes, metro areas with 1 million
population or more were subdivided between central counties (Code 0) and fringe counties (Code
1). The Code 1 group has become much less meaningful in the last two censuses as more and
more counties of large metro areas have been rated as central counties by OMB procedures. In
2000, only 1.6 percent of the population of large metro areas was in fringe counties. Therefore,
this distinction has been dropped. Codes 0 and 1 have been combined, and the new code 1
represents all counties in metro areas of 1 million or more population.
28
April 24, 2015
The 2003 Rural/Urban Continuum Codes are defined as follows:
CODE METROPOLITAN COUNTIES (1-3)

01 Counties of metro areas of 1 million population or more
02 Counties in metro areas of 250,000 - 1,000,000 population
03 Counties in metro areas of fewer than 250,000 population
CODE NON METROPOLITAN COUNTIES (4-9)

04 Urban population of 20,000 or more, adjacent to a metro area
05 Urban population of 20,000 or more, not adjacent to a metro area
06 Urban population of 2,500-19,999, adjacent to a metro area
07 Urban population of 2,500-19,999, not adjacent to a metro area
08 Completely rural or less than 2,500 urban population, adjacent to a metro area
09 Completely rural or less than 2,500 urban population, not adjacent to a metro area
99 Missing Value
