Flat Fee Variables. A flat fee is the fixed dollar amount a person is charged for a package of health care services provided during a defined period of time. Because MEPS does not collect flat fee information about home health events, no flat fee variables are included in this file.
Flat Fee Variables. User’s Note: For home health events, use flat fee variables with caution. Flat fees are not common with respect to home health events (there are no home health events on File 1 that are considered flat fee events) and should not be a focus of an analysis.
