Data Capture and Extraction Guidance: COVID-19 Data Dictionary

Takeaways:

The core data needed is:
- COVID-19 testing,
- COVID-19 diagnoses (confirmed, suspected, etc)
- Encounters (telehealth and in person separately)
- Demographics and SDOH
Any data that falls outside these classes is lower priority or likely to be lower feasibility and so should be undertaken later unless it is highly feasible
The denominator of this data set is two fold. Please clarify which denominator you are using for each data category.
- All patients under the UDS criteria
- UDS patients plus patients who have had services not meeting UDS criteria including COVID-19 testing

Data Element or Class	Priority	Target for 11/6	Notes
COVID-19 Testing	High	Feedback and aggregate counts

Encounters (Face to Face and Telehealth)	High	Feedback and aggregate counts
Demographics	High	Feedback and aggregate counts
SDOH	High	Feedback and aggregate counts
Flu Immunization	High	Feedback and aggregate counts	Look also for last year's data-- is it pre-aggregated?
Symptoms	Moderate	Feedback and aggregate counts if possible
Exposures	Moderate	Feedback and more specific data where possible
Interventions: Virtual Health services	Moderate	Feedback and more specific data where possible
Interventions: Enabling services, social interventions	Moderate	Feedback and more specific data where possible
PPE	Moderate	Feedback and more specific data where possible
Clinic Admin Data	Low	Feedback and more specific data where possible
Essential Workers	Low	Essential Workers
High Risk Clinical Diagnoses for COVID infection	Low	Feedback and more specific data where possible
