SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES Background The Patient Safety Act and Patient Safety Rule establish a framework by which doctors, hospitals, and other healthcare providers may voluntarily report information regarding patient safety events and quality of care. AHRQ develops and maintains the Common Formats to improve the safety and quality of healthcare delivery. AHRQ’s Common Formats Version 1.1 includes: Æ Descriptions of patient safety events and unsafe conditions to be reported (event descriptions), Æ Specifications for patient safety aggregate reports and individual event summaries, Æ Delineation of data elements to be collected for specific types of events, Æ A user’s guide and quick guide, and Æ Technical specifications for electronic data collection and reporting. This meeting will focus on presentation and discussion of these new technical specifications, which provide direction to software developers that plan to implement the Common Formats electronically. The technical specifications are a critical component that will allow for the aggregation of patient safety event data by standardizing the patient safety event information collected and specifying standard rules for data collection, as well as providing guidance for how and when to create data elements, their valid values, and conditional and go-to logic for the data elements. In addition to standardizing the information collected, they specify the data submission file format. VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:40 Apr 01, 2010 Jkt 220001 The technical specifications consist of the following: Æ Data dictionary—defines data elements and their attributes (data element name, answer values, field length, guide for use, etc.) included in Common Formats Version 1.1; Æ Clinical document architecture (CDA) implementation guide—provides instructions for developing a Health Level Seven (HL7) CDA Extensible Markup Language (XML) file to transmit the Common Formats Patient Safety data from the PSO to the PPC using the Common Formats; Æ Validation rules and errors document-specifies and defines the validation rules that will be applied to the Common Formats data elements submitted to the PPC; Æ Common Formats flow charts— diagrams the valid paths to complete generic and event specific formats (a complete event report); Æ Local specifications—provides specifications for processing, linking and reporting on events and details specifications for reports; and Æ Metadata registry—includes descriptive facts about information contained in the data dictionary to illustrate how such data corresponds with similar data elements used by other Federal agencies and standards development organizations [e.g., HL–7, International Standards Organization (ISO)]. Agenda, Registration and Other Information About the Meeting On Wednesday, May 5, 2010, the meeting will convene at 10 a.m. with an overview of the Common Formats Version 1.1, including the technical specifications. Next, AHRQ staff and contractors who developed the formats will review the different components of the technical specifications. Throughout the meeting there will be interactive discussion to allow meeting participants not only to provide input, but also to respond to the input provided by others. A more specific proposed agenda will be posted before the meeting at https: //www.psoppc.org/web/patientsafety. AHRQ requests that interested persons register with the PSO Privacy Protection Center (PSO PPC) on the Internet at https://www.psoppc.org/web/ patientsafety to participate in the meeting.
