Determining initial eligibility for further review

- Bill type = 0111, 0112, or 011A
- Admission source code ≠

- 5: Transfer from skilled nursing facility
- 6: Transfer from another facility
- A: Transfer from rural primary care hospital

- Taxonomy 282NC2000X: Children’s hospital
- Taxonomy 283Q00000X: Psychiatric hospital
- Taxonomy 283E00000X: Long-term care hospital
- Taxonomy 284300000X: Specialty (e.g., CA) hospital
