Data Transmission

If your facility collects data through an authorized vendor, or has chosen to have Quality Insights act as the vendor, that vendor can submit data to the QIO Clinical Data Warehouse, via QualityNet, on your behalf. In order to do this, you will need to login into the secured QualityNet Web site.  Click on 'Provider Profile Information' located in the provider self-serve section of the secured home screen.  Then click on the Inpatient Hospital Vendor Authorization for Data Submission link.  This screen will show you who you currently have authorized to submit data on your behalf as well as the dates that you have selected.  You can add/delete vendor information on this screen.

Adding a vendor:

  1. Select a vendor from the Vendor list
  2. Enter the Discharge Start Date *
  3. Enter the Data Transmission Start Date - this is the date which your vendor will start submitting to the secured QualityNet on your behalf *
  4. Review the information that you have entered
  5. Enter your password to approve the authorization and click Submit.  A message will display confirming that the vendor authorization has been completed.

Modifying/Updating a vendor:

  1. Click the Vendor button next to the desired vendor record to update
  2. Click the Update Vendor Authorization.  
  3. Enter the Discharge Start Date *
  4. Enter the Data Transmission Start Date - this is the date which your vendor will start submitting to the secured QualityNet on your behalf  *
  5. Review the information that you have entered
  6. Enter your password to approve the authorization and click Submit.  A message will display confirming that the vendor authorization has been completed. *

Please note that it is recommended that you leave the Discharge End Date and Data Transmission End Date fields blank.  These fields should only be utilized if you are terminating your vendor and know the applicable dates for that termination.

If, at any time, you wish to update your vendor authorization information, you may also send an e-mail to Jill Manna at jmanna@wvmi.org. In the e-mail, please indicate the vendor, topics and dates that you wish to add.  If you are terminating an existing vendor and adding a new one, please indicate the vendors, topics and dates for both the addition and deletion.Quality Insights will update the system accordingly and notify you when the modification has been completed.
 

Provider Data Transmission

If your facility collects data via CART, your facility can submit data directly to the QIO Clinical Data Warehouse. No additional authorization is required from your facility. Your QualityNet Administrator has the authorization to upload your data to the warehouse.
 

Data Transmission Timeline

Data must be submitted, verified and if need be, corrected by the established deadlines in order to be included in the public reporting initiatives. Data cannot be modified beyond these specified dates. You may add data to the warehouse beyond the deadline, but it will not be considered for your public reports. Read more about these deadlines.
