Notes: |
1Categories of principal diagnosis were defined by grouping ICD‐10‐CM codes using the Clinical Classifications Software Refined (CCSR) into clinically meaningful categories. CCSR was developed by the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP), which serves as the central distributor of hospital data for the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). Rates are the number of discharges per 10,000 population. ‐: A dash (‐) indicates quantity zero (0). *: An asterisk (*) indicates that the data do not meet standards of reliability or precision. |
