§ 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.

Key Takeaways

  • •Data providers must contribute the agreed‑upon data at least once a year.
  • •The data must match the definitions and standards set by the governing board.
  • •Providers must try to make the data as high‑quality as possible before sending it.
  • •The managing entity helps providers keep the data quality up.

Example

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.
