a. Consistent with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Prevention Quality Indicators (PQI) software, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease must be the principal diagnosis. Transfers from other institutions are excluded. Rates prior to 2005 are not reported because of International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision (ICD-9-CM) coding changes.
b. Rates are adjusted by age and gender using the total U.S. resident population for 2000 as the U.S. standard population.
