Government Reporting is not the only usage
Here in NY State, there is the State Planning and Research Cooperative System, SPARCS. Among the many data elements that are reported, there are a couple that need to examined for the benefit they would have to improve the quality and consistency of care for example, Race and Ethnicity.
While surfing this morning, another study conducted by the National Public Health and Hospital Institute found the few hospitals are actually using the data to improve the quality of health care that is delivered to patients.
Lesson Learned: If it is needed for governmental statistics, check with the quality department or medical informatics to see if it can improve quality of care.
