Data Storyteller

HRSA’s Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC) is pleased to offer a webinar hosted by the SAMHSA- HRSA Center for Integrated Health Solutions that will address strategies to leverage health information technology and technologies that support population health management and data aggregation to facilitate and sustain behavioral health interventions. Presenters will share best practices for health centers in streamlining and sustaining behavioral health workflows and maximizing their electronic health record to ensure comprehensive and accurate billing and coding.

This health center-tested Dental Dashboard, created by NNOHA and partners, is an interactive resource that allows users to monitor a set of dental measures through an online data collection tool and a chart presentation tool, allowing monitoring of performance and opportunities for QI. A case study is also included.

The goal of this paper is to clarify the roles of several health care data technologies that are often confusing to people, including Electronic Health Record (EHR) Databases, Analytic Systems and Data Warehouses, and Health Information Exchange (HIE) Data Repositories.
