I am trying to map DRG information available in the source data over to an appropriate v5 OMOP table. I noticed that VISIT_COST, PROCEDURE_COST, DRUG_COST and DEVICE_COST have been phased out. Are we meant to use just the COST table to store DRG related information?

Hi @jweave17. My impression is that all DRG information should be stored in the Cost table. The concept_id for the DRG should be stored in the cost.drg_concept_id field. It looks like the domainid was not update to the cost table designation in the most recent vocabularies.

Hoping to resurrect this discussion as our network would also benefit from having the APR-DRG vocabulary included. (Please let me know if this is not the correct forum and I would be happy to create a new issue)

Learning a new language involves more than just understanding the grammar rules. One important aspect is familiarizing yourself with different sets of vocabulary for various contexts. In this article, you will learn vocabulary related to the rooms in a house.

Once you've mastered the basics of rooms in a house, it's time to broaden your vocabulary. Here are the terms for additional home rooms that you might find in larger houses, mansions, or certain types of flats:

As you delve deeper into mastering English, you'll notice the frequent use of idioms. These are phrases that have developed a figurative meaning over time, separate from their literal meaning. They add richness to the language and can make your conversations more engaging. Let's explore some commonly used English idioms related to rooms and houses.

Idioms can make the English language feel more alive and expressive. Remember, understanding and using these room-related idioms can help you sound more fluently. Keep practicing them in context, and soon they'll become a natural part of your English communication.

Keep in mind that not all homes will contain all of these rooms, and some might have more than one of a particular type of room (e.g., multiple bedrooms or bathrooms). The names for rooms, their functions, and the presence of certain rooms can also vary based on regional or cultural differences.

It's so important to understand the terminology when you're building a house. It makes it much easier to make sure the architect understands exactly what you are looking for, meaning you'll get what you want. It also means you'll understand what the architect is trying to explain, which speeds up the process.

As a barrow can also be an "ancient burial mound" (Webster International Dictionary), does "Barrow Elm" mean the house sits on such a mound covered or ornamented with elms? Or am I missing something more elementary?

(Extra notes: a Google search indicates that this placename is not at all unusual in the UK. Also, a glance at an Ordnance Survey map for the UK countryside shows a lot of barrows - they're marked as "tumulus" - so it's not a stretch to say that a lot of houses have been near these at some point.)

A house placed at, near, or on the road to, that place could well be named after it. The singular elm seems to indicate that there was a single elm. You don't need many trees to give a place a name :)

This one strikes me as a little bit odd because of the ordering of the words. If someone called a place "Elm Barrow", I'd take that to mean that it was on or near a barrow that was covered or surrounded by elm trees, or at least that had one or two prominent elm trees in the vicinity. That is, "barrow" is a noun and "elm" is used as an adjective describing something about the barrow.

But as it's a name, maybe whoever made it up just liked the sound better if you switched the two around. Or maybe they are intended to be unrelated: there is a barrow and there are some elms. I don't know how you could know without asking the person.

I just checked a dictionary and I see that "Barrow" is also the name of a river in Ireland. Perhaps the person who named this place was thinking of that river and of an elm tree that grows along that river -- a "Barrow elm".

I see that "barrow" can also mean a castrated pig. The tree belonging to this pig, or where this pig lives? "My pig's tree" seems a funny thing to want to call a place, but as I'd never heard that definition of the word before, I don't know the connotations.

discusses trees called the Gibbet Tree, the Court Tree, and the Barrow Elm. These were notable trees used for public purposes. In the case discussed, the Barrow Elm appears to have been on or near a barrow, but that may not always have been the case; "barrow" could have arisen from the name of a settlement, or a corruption of a similar word such as "borough."

Creative Director Yoko Kloeden completed a major renovation of her three-story family home in Richmond, London. Covered in ivy for over 30 years and internally a patchwork of DIY building works, the Victorian semi-detached house was converted to a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom house with a large family area and a home office.

The project included demolishing the poorly done ground floor extension, gutting and stripping the entire house, rebuilding the rear extension to make a large family area, adding two rooms to the loft level as the second floor, and refurbishing the whole house including the exterior and the garden.
