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: Should issuers handle data across two years in the 'TOTAL NUMBER OF ENROLLEE RECORDS' field in the Edge Server enrollment submission using one file where the data are accumulated together (i.e., 2014 and 2015) in a record, as separate records within a file, or as two separate files?
Answer: Enrollment data for multiple years is included on a single file. The Total Number of Enrollee Records includes all Enrollee Records on the file. Therefore, this field would include all records for all years submitted.
