Public Reporting
DatabaseStarted in 1989Housed at Duke Clinical Research InstituteOver 4.5 million patients in the database
○ No other database like it in the worldClinical data, not claims 9 page form and 100’s of fields on every
patientUniform definitions ensure accuracy and
purity

Public Reporting
DatabaseAll participants pay to submit dataRisk adjustedPeer reviewed and auditedCurrently 1071 “practices” reporting

Public Reporting
Pro’sProfessional and ethical responsibilityRobust database without equal
○ Far superior to any administrative claims data○ Clinically useful○ Risk adjusted
Can draw reliable meaningful conclusionsProvides methods for analysis of CQI and
Patient Safety initiatives

![Page 12: Public reporting Of Cardiac Data](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813160550346895d97d6a2/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Public Reporting Con’s
Cost○ Money○ Time
Requires expertise○ Statistics○ Medical knowledge
Errors○ Few MD’s have the time to audit and correct
Most have non-clinical abstractors submittingNow too large for DCRI to do anything but random audits
![Page 13: Public reporting Of Cardiac Data](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813160550346895d97d6a2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Public Reporting
Con’sSkewed
○ Good penetrance – over 90%○ Only 42% Publicly report
Hospital level reporting○ Not reflective of an individual surgeon
One exception
○ Multiple MD’s at multiple hospitalsSmall denominators (sample size)
![Page 14: Public reporting Of Cardiac Data](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813160550346895d97d6a2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Public Reporting
Con’sMarketing
○ Costs to systemRefusal to care for sicker patients
○ New York#1 problem……..
○ Nothing to compare surgical outcomes againstNo data on the medical treatment of patientsNo data on the percutaneous treatment of patientsNeed longitudinal studies
![Page 15: Public reporting Of Cardiac Data](https://reader030.vdocuments.site/reader030/viewer/2022032805/56813160550346895d97d6a2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Public Reporting
SummaryData allows one to draw meaningful
conclusions but is quite complexAffirms patient right to know but will that
translate into action (example)Data is robust/reliable but nothing
longitudinal for comparison May result in denial of careNo mechanism to help those on the left side
of the bell curve

Public Reporting
SuggestionsEnforce reporting for all programsConsider requiring participation in other
databases – ACC, SVSPrepare for substantial costs to get
actionable individual level dataWill need to educate publicMust consider remedial actions for low
performersCurrently, most likely a tool for professionals
