Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in 5% or 100% formats. The 5% data set consists of 7 compo­nents: hospital inpatient, hospital outpatient, home health agency, skilled nursing facility, hospice care, physician car­rier (Part B), and durable medical equipment. The 100% data set includes all Medicare beneciaries but does not include data from the durable medical equipment or phy­sician carrier components. A denominator le is also available to track the date of death and enrollment infor­mation for Medicare beneciaries. Patients are uniquely identied by an encrypted Medicare beneciary identica­tion number that remains consistent across all parts of the database, as well as over time, which allows follow-up of the patient. In 2017, this included data for approximately 58 million enrollees, of whom 85% were over 65years old, while the remaining enrollees who were under 65 were insured by Medicare due to their physical disabilities or end-stage renal disease (Medicare Interactive 2020).
