APCD Common Data Layout (APCD-CDL™)
The All-Payer Claims Database Common Data Layout (APCD-CDL™) was developed by the APCD Council and NAHDO to harmonize the collection of administrative health insurance data across states and reduce the burden of data submission. The overall goals of this effort are to improve efficiency, reduce administrative costs and improve accuracy in claims data collection.
