  1. Ohio’s hospital birth certificate data quality dashboard John Paulson, Judy Nagy, Ike Mgbatogu, Jingyu Hu, Srivalsan Karuvada Ohio Department of Health, Office of Vital Statistics

  2. Why we created the dashboard • NCHS documents many Ohio problems • Utility of some variables compromised by inadequate quality • VS desired an automated tool to • report data quality issues to hospitals • point VS staff to most important areas for improvement

  3. Main contents of the Dashboard --tabular

  4. Dashboard data sourcing IPHIS (BC application) Analysis data (nightly copy) Dashboard Hospital corrections occur in the source

  5. Data quality indicator sources • NCHS validation and verification errors • NCHS unknowns • Other data quality items of special interest • Included a few easy ones with few errors • No independent data were used to evaluate BC data (e.g., Medicaid, hospital discharge data)

  6. Statistics shown in reports • Birth count • Error count • Error rate (%) • Error share (% errors within Ohio, within peer group) • Font color denotes rates above a threshhold

  7. Thresholds • Indicator thresholds define problem cases and font color • One cut-point per indicator (not peer group specific) • In general we used the 75th percentile in error rates among hospitals as the cut-point

  8. Hospital and VS user types • Hospital users see (for top 12 indicators) • own hospital’s statistics • peer group statistics • statewide statistics • listing of certificates with errors • VS users see • All of above (for all hospitals and peer groups) • 12 more indicators

  9. Ohio statewide report for April/May 2014 births

  10. Ohio statewide graph for April/May 2014 births

  11. When user clicks on the indictor row, the peer group statistics are shown Peer groups based on birth count in 2013: 10 large hospitals, 22 medium, 85 small Statewide Large Medium Small

  12. Click on peer group to get hospital-level statistics

  13. Click on the hospital to see the line listing of certificates with problems

  14. Report details customized to indicator

  15. User can sort the rows by a columns’ values In this case bringing cases with most errors to top

  16. Sorting by error share to direct intervention

  17. Hospital user display features • Show error rate and how it compares to other hospitals • Show proportion of errors the hospital is responsible for statewide and within a peer group • Use color to direct attention to problems • Provide a line listing of certificates with problems

  18. Hospital is known from the local login process Date range defaults to the current year Hospital can choose a specific date range for the report as needed

  19. Tabular report shown in bar chart, hospital with a handful of problems

  20. Hospital with two handfuls of problemsl

  21. Observations • Good • Development was intensive iterative process • We are happy with the product and its functionality • We built a hospital usage report to track activity • Not so good • We did not build a summary report that shows us the biggest problem facilities across all indicators • Adoption by hospitals has been slow • Requires individual log-in assignment outside the electronic birth system • We have not identified the correct staff within hospitals and hospital systems who are most likely to use the dashboard
