Accessing Data for QI

As adoption of EHRs has increased, so have the concerns about ability to access the data needed to drill down into quality improvement efforts or even reporting requirements. Depending on the type of system being used, data may be cloud based, on a remote server, or on a local server. Further, data may be accessible through preprogrammed, ad hoc, or custom reports, but there may be greater challenges to accessing raw data or data that can be analyzed for quality improvement purposes. Resources in this section address these challenges and provide actionable information for accessing the data needed.

Find a Health Center Controlled Networks (HCCNs)

Health Center Controlled Networks (HCCNs) are groups of health centers working together to address operational and clinical challenges related to the use of health information technology (health IT). HCCNs receiving HRSA grant funding offer a wide range of support services to improve the health centers’ ability to: 1) achieve meaningful use of ONC-certified electronic health records (EHRs), 2) adopt technology-enabled quality improvement strategies, 3) engage in health information exchange (HIE), and 4) strengthen quality of care and improve patient outcomes.
