The nih_insurance data element is the result of the harmonization of other RADx program data elements: hi_coverage_type RADx-UP; insurance RADx-rad; dht_medical_insurance_short RADx-DHT Note that the meaning of the value 97 is context specific and depends on the subset of permissible value used by a specific study (not all studies presented the full set of permissible values documented here for this data element). Therefore, the meaning of the value 97 in an individual data record MUST be determined by referring to the original data dictionary for the non-harmonized data in that study.
