Distributed Data Collection (DDC) for RA Including HCRP/EDGE Server FAQ
Guidance for FAQ regarding Edge Server Operations and Data Submission - Enrollment File
Program Area: Distributed Data Collection (DDC) for RA Including HCRP/EDGE Server
Question: Will the Edge Server Enrollment Submission process allow for per member per month records, regardless of changes (i.e., could one member enrolled for the complete 2014 year, with no membership changes, have 12 separate records with start and end dates respective to each individual month)?
Answer: Yes. It would be possible to have 12 separate enrollment periods under a single enrollee section of the Edge Server Enrollment Submission. However, this is not recommended as this would increase the file size and required storage capacity.
