As HRSA BPHC's UDS+ and other granular data reporting programs approach, health centers are at varying levels of awareness and readiness. The HITEQ Center offered a virtual office hours series to discuss the following:

• The mechanisms of future reporting via bulk FHIR submission
• The future state where health centers are ready for UDS+ and other patient level reporting.
• Readiness processes for future reporting via bulk FHIR submission, including strong data governance, standardized documentation, and mapping. 
• Health IT and data characteristics of future-focused health centers.

After participating in these four sessions, attendees are now able to:

• Describe the characteristics of health centers that are more ready for granular and patient-level reporting
• Point to resources available to attendees to increase understanding of FHIR
• Identify at least one step to be taken to prepare for granular and patient-level reporting
