Rural cooperative coding project.
Data quality is the cornerstone on which other quality activities are built. The importance of accurately coded data cannot be overlooked. The Rural Cooperative Coding Project sought to collaborate with rural hospitals in Utah to improve the quality of that data through an individualized educational program allowing open and active discussions. We hope that this project has assisted rural facilities in building and enhancing their own ongoing coding and data quality improvement activities.
