  11. Barriers to Use

  12. Measures

  13. Retention Global Issues

  14. Current Retention Measure: 2 or more visits at least 3 months apart * Source: Virginia Client Reporting System (VACRS)

  15. Current Work in Virginia • Discussion with DIS and CBOs funded for testing to set up consent process • Programming all retention measures into VACRS • Matching with state surveillance/ obtain other sources of care markers (Medicaid, Medicare, labs)

  16. Terri Fox, MSW Research Analyst Rutgers University, School of Social Work

  17. NJ Data Integrity Maintenance • Make the data a priority by using it • Infuse data expectations in contract language, regular reporting, and outcome evaluation • Work with a diverse group of staff/providers/consumers (depending on your ‘program’ unit) to ensure common understanding of definitions of services, units and realistic outcomes • Get the input from all parties involved about what goals for service should be • Commit to working towards the stated goals

  18. NJ Data Integrity Maintenance 6. Ensure that the scope isn’t too broad; the focus and amount of data should be narrow—(what do we fix first? ); where there are too many variables, each one gets a little lost to someone, diluting the potential for impact 7. When there is a question of the integrity of the data, there MUST be a follow up to address the data issue. Do NOT accept ‘there is a problem with the data’ as the end of the discussion. Next steps should always be to address said ‘data’ problem

  19. NJ Data Integrity Maintenance 8. Identify data champions at each site; a data champion understands the local service system and how service information is translated into data points in whatever software/form/chart that you are using 9. Include the data champions in any and all discussions about data, especially where the program manager may not be as data savvy as the nurse, case manager, etc. 10. Check the data on a regular basis- does it look like the levels of service are being met- how are the outcome variables? What is the quality of care as expressed by the data?

  20. NJ Data Integrity Maintenance 11. Train annually. This never hurts anyone. You can even let your champions participate in training new/newer staff 12. Do NOT make data entry overly complicated. There should be no translation/interpretation needed from contact sheet to database 13. Make realistic goals for care. Do not set providers up to fail. (Meet providers where they are- take steps towards achievable goals) 14. Communicate that data are part of care; not an addition to care
