§ 10871 Data Provider Reporting Requirements
This law says anyone who provides data must send a specific set of data at least once a year and make sure the data is good quality; the group that runs the data system helps check the quality too.
A local hospital is a data provider. Every year it sends the required health statistics (the P20W data set) to the state health database.
The hospital must follow the data definitions and standards, try to clean up any mistakes before sending, and the state agency will work with the hospital to fix any quality problems.
