17th ANNUAL EARLY HEARING DETECTION & INTERVENTION MEETING

Collect and Match: The Essentials to a Functional Data Wardrobe
The Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) and Oregon Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) program completed a multi-phase health information exchange (HIE) pilot project that resulted in the ongoing direct electronic transfer of newborn hearing screening data from Electronic Health Records (EHR) to the State EHDI program. The success of the project is dependent on the collection and matching of specific demographic identifiers/information (i.e. name, MRN, gender etc.) between the two systems. EHDI staff have implemented matching criteria which yield a high match rate, however, infrequent matching errors and unmatched records persist.
This poster will demonstrate and discuss successful match rates for combinations of multiple identifiers, challenging matching scenarios and possible matching algorithms to address them, as well as describe and discuss rare matching errors that can result and how to monitor for them. We will provide recommendations to improve matching rates and quality assurance processes to identify and reconcile erroneous matches for optimal data quality.
- Describe 3 demographic identifiers
- Describe a combination of identifiers with a high match rate
- Describe a challenging match scenario
