Has the HBDP instituted any quality control/assurance measures to ensure the best data possible?
To ensure data accuracy, completeness and timeliness, strict quality control and assurance procedures have been established by the HBDP as follows: 7% re-abstraction of all charts by a separate Data Collection Specialist, and 100% review of all abstracts by a contracted Data Consultant or physician (certified dysmorphologist).
