Texas Inpatient Research Data File (IP RDF)
The Inpatient Research Data File (IP RDF) contains data on discharges from Texas hospitals and can be requested by individuals and organizations, including universities and government agencies, for research purposes. It contains more detailed and specific information than the Inpatient Public Use Data File (IP PUDF), allowing for more in-depth analysis.
