This SAS program reads in a list of ICD-9-CM codes and calculates the Combined Comorbidity Score, which was developed based on conditions included in the Charlson Index and the Elixhauser comorbidity system, and which shows better ability to discriminate mortality than either component score.
The Prospective Routine Observational Monitoring Program Tool (PROMPT) Propensity Score Matching (PSM) module comprises a suite of flexible, scalable, modular SAS macros that perform effect estimation in a distributed data setting based on propensity-score matched sequential new user cohorts.
