Meeting for Software Developers on
the Common Formats for Patient
Safety Data Collection
AGENCY:
Background
AHRQ coordinates the
development of sets of standardized
definitions and formats (Common
Formats) that make it possible to collect,
aggregate, and analyze uniformly
structured information about health care
quality and patient safety for local,
regional, and national learning. The
Common Formats include technical
specifications to facilitate the collection
of electronically comparable data by
Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs) and
other entities. Additional information
about the Common Formats can be
obtained through AHRQ’s PSO website
at https://pso.ahrq.gov/common-formats
and the PSO Privacy Protection Center’s
website at https://www.psoppc.org/
psoppc_web/publicpages/
commonFormatsOverview. The purpose
of this notice is to announce a meeting
to discuss implementation of the
Common Formats with software
developers and other interested parties.
This meeting is designed as an
interactive forum where software
developers can provide input on use of
the formats. AHRQ especially requests
participation by and input from those
entities which have used AHRQ’s
technical specifications and
implemented, or plan to implement, the
Common Formats electronically.
The Patient Safety and Quality
Improvement Act of 2005, 42 U.S.C.
299b–21 to 299b–26 (Patient Safety Act),
and the related Patient Safety and
Quality Improvement Final Rule, 42
CFR part 3 (Patient Safety Rule),
published in the Federal Register on
November 21, 2008, 73 FR 70731–
70814, provide for the Federal listing of
Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs),
which collect, aggregate, and analyze
confidential information (patient safety
work product) regarding the quality and
safety of health care delivery.
The Patient Safety Act requires PSOs,
to the extent practical and appropriate,
to collect patient safety work product
from providers in a standardized
manner that permits valid comparisons
of similar cases among similar
providers. (42 U.S.C. 299b–24(b)(1)(F)).
The Patient Safety Act also authorizes
the development of data standards,
known as the Common Formats, to
facilitate the aggregation and analysis of
non-identifiable patient safety data
collected by PSOs and reported to the
network of patient safety databases
(NPSD). (42 U.S.C. 299b–23(b)). The
Patient Safety Act and Patient Safety
Rule can be accessed at: https://
www.pso.ahrq.gov/legislation/.
AHRQ has issued Common Formats
for Event Reporting (CFER) for three
settings of care—hospitals, nursing
homes, and community pharmacies.
AHRQ has also issued Common Formats
Agency for Healthcare Research
and Quality (AHRQ), Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice of public meeting.

for Event Reporting—Diagnostic Safety
(CFER–DS) designed for use in all
healthcare settings.
Federally listed PSOs can meet the
requirement to collect patient safety
work product in a standardized manner
to the extent practical and appropriate
by using AHRQ’s Common Formats. The
Common Formats are also available in
the public domain to encourage their
widespread adoption. An entity does
not need to be listed as a PSO or
working with one to use the Common
Formats. However, the Federal privilege
and confidentiality protections only
apply to information developed as
patient safety work product by
providers and PSOs working under the
Patient Safety Act.
Agenda, Registration, and Other
Information About the Meeting
The Agency for Healthcare Research
and Quality (AHRQ) will be hosting this
fully virtual meeting to discuss
implementation of the Common Formats
with members of the public, including
software developers and other interested
parties. Agenda topics will include
discussion of the Network of Patient
Safety Databases, including the Falls
2022 Supplemental Dashboard. Active
participation and discussion by meeting
participants is encouraged.
AHRQ requests that interested
persons send an email to SDMeetings@
infinityconferences.com for registration
information. Before the meeting, an
agenda and logistical information will
be provided to registrants.
