  2. Objectives • Purpose of the DQMC Review List and DQ Statement Roundtable • Increase community awareness • Background and history • TMA Data Quality Management Control (DQMC) Program • Introduce Service initiatives • Discuss issues

  3. DQMC Background & History GAO Audit Agencies Why Worry about Data Quality? One reason is external scrutiny... DoD IG Congress

  4. DQMC Background & History TMA DQMC Program improves data quality and ensures that the MTF receives credit for properly recorded workload.

  5. DQMC Background & History • Typically Data Quality is formulated as an IT problem • Errors in transmission • Errors in processing • Unsynchronized databases • But our most difficult problems with data quality are often not directly attributable to IT, nor readily fixed by IT solutions • Standardization of business rules and policies across Services, between agencies • Inconsistency of choices for codes, weights, and algorithms • Expectations of low data quality

  6. DQMC Background & History • Data Quality Management Control (DQMC) Program was created to alleviate DoD IG’s identification of material management control weaknesses within MHS • DoD IG report concerning the FY 1998 Retirement Liability Estimate • GAO Medicare Subvention Demonstration report • Elements of the DQMC Program • TMA DQMC Program, collaboration between • TMA POC • 3 Service POCs • Policy Memorandum (29 Nov 2000) • DoDI 6040.40 (26 Nov 2002) updated annually • DQMC Review List • Data Quality Statement

  7. DQMC Background & History • Start with the DQMC Review List • Enclosure 1 of DODI 6040.40 • Monthly Data Quality Statement • Subset of DQMC Review List sent to Service DQ managers and the TMA DQMC Program Manager [Enclosure 2 of DODI 6040.40] • Commander approval • Used to create TMA Summary • Tri-Service view of data • Briefed to both the Resource Management Steering Committee (RMSC) and TMA Senior Leadership and Service DSGs (CFOIC), twice a year

  8. DQMC Background & History • How are these metrics used? • Timely feedback to the Commanders about the quality of their data • Discussed monthly at DQMC Workgroup meetings • Service DQ POCs and TMA meet at TMA-MC&FS • Service and TMA wide issues discussed and documented • Posted on the TMA – OCFO, MC&FS – Web site, DQMC Web page • http://www.tricare.mil/ocfo/mcfs/dqmcp.cfm • Metrics & Reports • Important reference material

  9. TMA Comments Example of the TMA Summary Sheet

  10. TMA Comments • Metric Standards (colors) are as follows: • Green – 95-100 • Yellow – 80-94 • Red – 0-79 • Except for 8e and 9, which is Green for 80 and above • 3c, 3d, and 10a do not yet have a standard – no color • Metric colors • Generally move from red status to green status over the fiscal year, indicates data quality matures over the year • Sometimes “RED” is good, revealing a system-wide problem • Sometimes there is no coloring to indicate a new question or one for which a goal is not yet established

  11. Example of TMA Summary –FY10 Metric Questions 11

  12. Example of TMA Summary –FY10 Metric Questions 12

  13. TMA Comments • TMA Initiatives this year • Added DMHRSi questions (DQ Statement 3d and 3e) • Clarified existing questions to strive for tri-Service uniformity in answers • Removed one question • DQ Statement question 1a – close every clinic • Replaced with what was 1b – close every record

  14. Army Comments • Data Quality Management Control (DQMC) Program Review • Defense Medical Human Resources System-internet (DMHRS-i) • MTFs submitting MEPRS data without 100% of personnel timecards. • DMHRS-i allows for Medical Command level review of what MTFs are submitting for timecards. • Army MTFs will be penalized under Performance Based Adjustment Measures for not meeting monthly MEPRS submission date. Penalty is $10.00 per available FTE per reporting month.

  15. Army Comments • Other Health Insurance (OHI), DD Form 2569 • Currently no Army wide solution for development of an electronic DD Form 2569. • Army sites using a contracted vendor to identify beneficiaries with OHI have reported increase in beneficiaries identified with OHI . • Army sites using outside vendor reporting increased revenue collections. • Army Medical Command considering several different models for Third Party Collections.

  16. Army Comments Coding Army using Code Auditing and Reporting Application (CARA). Coding audits conducted under Patient Administration Systems and Biostatistics Activity (PASBA) oversight. CARA coding results will be incorporated into Army Production Based Adjustment Model. CARA results will be used by all Army MTFs to populate DQMC Program DQ Statement. DQMC Program Changes for Army New Web-based application, to include Web-based Review List. Added three Army-only questions to DQ Statement. 16

  17. Navy Comments • References • Navy FY10 DQMC Guidance • 10% Improvement Required in DDFM 2569 Collection for Outpatient Encounters • Inpatient and APV Records DDFM 2569 Required on Admission, MANMED Chapter: ???? • Coding Timeliness, Coding Accuracy • Audit policy is in concert with Patient Administration Standard Audit Guidelines 17
