HIV/AIDS Bureau Overview of RSR Data Claudia Glover, MHS Health Scientist Epidemiology and Data Branch Division of Science and Policy HIV/AIDS Bureau Health Resources and Services Administration U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 1
Outline • Why are data important? • How does HAB plan to use the RSR data • Upcoming plans – RSR 2010 and beyond 2
Why Are Data Important? If you do not measure results, you can not tell success from failure. If you can not see success, you cannot reward it. If you can not reward success, you may be rewarding failure. If you can not see success, you can not learn from it. If you can not recognize failure, you can not correct it. If you can demonstrate results, you can win public support. 3 3
How Does HAB Plan To Use the RSR Data? • Advocate for needed program resources • Celebrate Successes • Identify areas for improvement • Providers can evaluate their progress in meeting core clinical performance measures 4

Upcoming Plans – RSR 2010 and Beyond • As reported in a late 2010 summary edition of the HAB Information E-mail, there will be no changes in upcoming reporting for RSR submission • Emphasis is on how accurate the data are – we want the data to represent the great work that you do! • Emphasis on RSR/RDR inconsistencies • If the RSR client count is greater than the RDR client count by more than 10%, grantees for those providers will be contacted • Need to better understand the inconsistencies • Technical assistance will be provided as needed 8
Upcoming Plans – RSR 2010 and Beyond Data Quality Logic checks Data have been reviewed and there are some data that just don’t make sense HAB will be developing data validation guidelines; these will be vetted with grantees RSR 2010 will display these data validation issues on the validation report, but no action required RSR 2011 will require you to fix data validation issues, which may require XML changes 9 9
Upcoming Plans – RSR 2010 and Beyond • Data Quality (cont’d) • Completeness rates • Initial focus was on whether or not a value had been provided • Emphasis now will also include the amount of missing data • The frequency of “unknown” values will also be examined 10
Upcoming Plans – RSR 2010 and Beyond Project officers will begin to look at performance measures calculated from the RSR data that you submit Raise questions about data that don’t make sense Help ensure that what providers do at their agencies is represented accurately in the data Performance measures from RSR 2009 data will not be used to determine quality of care Technical assistance will be provided as needed through a variety of TA partners 11 11
Summary Shifting to emphasis on data quality Technical assistance will be provided as needed by the TA partners No changes in upcoming reporting for RSR submission 12 12
