Video Summary

This video discusses step four in data collection using the ACC online data collection tool. If a third-party vendor is used, separate tutorials are needed. The tool is used to collect and send data to the NCDR data warehouse managed by the American College of Cardiology. All NCDR registries include the tool and there is no extra fee. Demographic accounts for each patient are created, which can be used for subsequent visits. The procedure information tab requires information about the operator, which is selected from a dropdown list. The operator information is maintained in a master list and can be accessed through the provider maintenance tab. The dropdown list is used for various identifiers in the patient data form.
