Video Transcription
The data quality report is a process for submitting data files to the NCDR. The data file from your institution is not complete until it's been submitted to and passed the DQR. All data submissions are evaluated for errors and completeness. This information is then summarized in an automated report and a submission status of green, yellow, or red is then returned to participants after each data submission. A green status indicates that the quarterly data submission process is complete. A yellow status indicates that the submission has passed the data assessment but failed the completeness assessment. And a red status indicates the data has validation errors. When a yellow or red submission is achieved, the participant is encouraged to review and correct any outstanding issues identified by the DQR and then resubmit the data to the DQR process. Assessing the DQR with a green submission status ensures well-formed data and statistically significant submissions. The DQR-based submission results include data captured prior to or during the episode of care of the patient. Individual registry review is necessary to determine the specific coding instructions defining admission to addition periods as well as registry-specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The DQR process sorts patients into defined quarters based off of hospital discharge dates. For a complete review of data deadline schedules, please review the call for data schedule located at ncdr.com under Data and Call for Data Schedule. It's important to note that base submission data quality review must be completed before any follow-up submission. Follow-up data quality report submission results include data captured after the hospital discharge of the patient. Follow-up dates and ranges vary from registry to registry. For a complete review of follow-up schedules and deadline periods, please review the call for data schedule located at ncdr.com under Data and Call for Data Schedule. Again, please note that the base submission data quality review process must be completed before and separately from any and all follow-up data submissions.
Video Summary
The video explains the process of submitting data files to the NCDR and the importance of completing the data quality report (DQR). All submissions are evaluated for errors and completeness, and a report with a green, yellow, or red status is returned to participants. A green status means the data submission process is complete, yellow indicates passing the data assessment but failing the completeness assessment, and red indicates validation errors. Participants are encouraged to review and correct any issues identified by the DQR for yellow or red submissions. The DQR process categorizes patients into quarters based on hospital discharge dates. Separate follow-up data submissions have their own schedules and deadlines, which can be found on the ncdr.com website. It is emphasized that the base submission DQR must be completed before any follow-up submissions. The specific coding instructions for admission, addition periods, and inclusion/exclusion criteria are determined through individual registry review.
