Census tract certainty 1970/80/90

Definition

  • Code indicating basis of assignment of census tract or block numbering area (BNA) for an individual record. Helpful in identifying cases tracted from incomplete information or P.O. Box. Most of the time, this information is provided by a geocoding vendor service. Alternatively, a central registry staff manually assigns the code. This item is not coded by the hospital. Codes are hierarchical, with lower numbers having priority. Note: Codes 1-5 and 9 are usually assigned by a geocoding vendor, while code 6 is usually assigned through a special effort by the central registry...
