Common use of Policyholder Variables Clause in Contracts

Policyholder Variables. The values of three variables describing the policyholder do not vary across the records of the persons covered by the plan, regardless of whether the covered person is the policyholder. The variable DECPHLDR indicates the policyholder is deceased. The variable OUTHLDR indicates the policyholder resides outside the RU. In each case, there are no person-level records on a person-level PUF, even though the PRPL file has a record for the policyholder as a covered- person (that is, a record where PHOLDER=1). The variable NOPUFLG indicates there is another reason the policyholder does not have a record on a person-level PUF. The purpose of these flags is to explain any difficulty users may have linking policyholder information onto the PRPL file. These variables do not, however, measure mortality or policyholders’ leaving the household, which should instead be obtained from the PSTATS variables on the person-level files. (For example, policyholders who die between Round 1 (Panel 12) or 3 (Panel 11) and the end of 2007 will have records on HC-101 and HC-107, and PITFLG and FYFLG will be set to 1.)

Policyholder Variables. The values of three variables describing the policyholder do not vary across the records of the persons covered by the plan, regardless of whether the covered person is the policyholder. The variable DECPHLDR indicates the policyholder is deceased. The variable OUTHLDR OUTPHLDR indicates the policyholder resides outside the RU. In each case, there are no person-level records on a person-level PUF, even though the PRPL file has a record for the policyholder as a covered- covered person (that is, a record where PHOLDER=1). The variable NOPUFLG indicates there is another reason the policyholder does not have a record on a person-level PUF. The purpose of these flags is to explain any difficulty users may have linking policyholder information onto the PRPL file. These variables do not, however, measure mortality or policyholders’ leaving the household, which should instead be obtained from the PSTATS variables on the person-level files. (For example, policyholders who die between Round 1 (Panel 1219) or 3 (Panel 1118) and the end of 2007 2014 will have records on HC-101 HC-159 and HC-107HC-165, and PITFLG and FYFLG will be set to 1.)

The variable DECPHLDR indicates the policyholder is deceased. The variable OUTHLDR indicates the policyholder resides outside the RU. In each case, there are no person-level records on a person-person- level PUF, even though the PRPL file has a record for the policyholder as a covered- covered-person (that is, a record where PHOLDER=1). The variable NOPUFLG indicates there is another reason the policyholder does not have a record on a person-level PUF. The purpose of these flags is to explain any difficulty users may have linking policyholder information onto the PRPL file. These variables C-8 MEPS HC-047: 2000 File do not, however, measure mortality or policyholders’ policyholders= leaving the household, which should instead be obtained from the PSTATS PSTATUS variables on the person-level files. (For example, policyholders who die between Round rounds 1 (Panel 125) or 3 (Panel 114) and the end of 2007 2000 will have records on HC-101 HC-022 and HC-107HC-039, and PITFLG PUF22FLG and FYFLG PUF39FLG will be set to 1.)
