 |total_paid|No|float|The total amount paid from all payers for the expenses of the service/device/drug.  This field is calculated using the following formula: paid_by_payer + paid_by_patient + paid_by_primary.  In claims data, this field is considered the calculated field the payer expects the provider to get reimbursed for the service/device/drug from the payer and from the patient, based on the payer's contractual obligations.|
 |paid_by_payer|No|float|The amount paid by the Payer for the service/device/drug.  In claims data, generally there is one field representing the total payment from the payer for the service/device/drug.  However, this field could be a calculated field if the source data provides separate payment information for the ingredient cost and the dispensing fee.  If the paid_ingredient_cost or paid_dispensing_fee fields are populated with nonzero values, the paid_by_payer field is calculated using the following formula:  paid_ingredient_cost + paid_dispensing_fee.   If there is more than one Payer in the source data, several cost records indicate that fact.  The Payer reporting this reimbursement should be indicated under the payer_plan_id field.|
