What Caboodle table and column contains the data for the number of distinct days as attending?

• A. HospitalAdmissionAttributedProviderDataMart.HospitalAdmissionKey

In the context of the Caboodle data model, this particular column is often used in analyses that require a clear count of inpatient care days attributed to a provider, essential for examining provider effectiveness, resource utilization, and patient flow within hospitals.
