Line Last Expense Date (Encounter)

SAS Name
LINE_LAST_EXPNS_DT

The ending date (last expense) for the line item service on the non-institutional encounter record.

It is almost always the same as the line-level first expense date (variable called LINE_1ST_EXPNS_DT); exception is for DME claims - where some services are billed in advance.
