Key variables for each file to link within and between the MA Encounter files;
How to link the encounter data to other files, such as the Master Beneficiary Summary File
(MBSF) and Plan Characteristics Files;
How the encounter files compare to fee-for- service (FFS) claims files; and
Identification and considerations for duplicate encounters and chart review records.
