Video Transcription
Percentage values, in the form of thresholds, are assigned to every data element within a registry. When data is submitted to the data quality report process, the harvest mechanisms review every data element electronically to ensure the assigned element threshold has been met. If, for example, a threshold has been set to 90% on a sequence number called 1111 and out of 10 patient records the actual elements were completed 10 out of 10 times, the system will assign 100% passing status for that element. If the threshold has been set to 90% on our sequence 1111 and out of 10 patient records the actual elements were answered 8 out of 10 times, the system will assign a failing status for that element due to the 90% threshold not being met. In order to be included in benchmark comparison reporting, all thresholds must be met. The good news is that the DQR report will identify all failing elements for your review.
Video Summary
In the video, it is explained that percentage thresholds are assigned to every data element within a registry. When data is submitted for the data quality report process, the system electronically reviews each data element to check if the assigned threshold has been met. If a threshold of 90% has been set for a specific element and the element is completed 10 out of 10 times, it is considered a passing status with 100%. However, if the element is answered only 8 out of 10 times, it is considered a failing status because the 90% threshold is not met. To be included in benchmark comparison reporting, all thresholds must be met. The DQR report will help identify failing elements for review.
