Description

The ADUSH Enrollment Monthly File is comprised of national statistics on VHA expenditures, enrollment, and patients for the purpose of forecasting enrollment, expenditures, and to perform policy analysis. Each month data are extracted from the following sources:

  • enrollment, eligibility, and income verification data from the VHA Health Eligibility Center (HEC) via an extract from the National Enrollment Database (NED),
  • data related to cost of care from the VHA Allocation Resource Center (ARC),
  • utilization indicators (e.g. annual VHA users) from the VHA Veterans Integrated Service Network (VISN) Support Services Center (VSSC), and
  • death dates from the VA Vital Status Mini File.
The ADUSH Enrollment File is a fiscal year cumulative file. The files are housed at the Austin Information Technology Center (AITC formerly: CFD; formerly: AAC) and are in SAS® format. The monthly files are available within two months after the target month ends and the fiscal year-end file (September’s file) is noted with an “F” in its name.
