title: We've collected the OASIS data, now what?
abstract: The OASIS data set provides home care agencies with well-tested items for the collection of patient health status and outcome data. Illustrative examples of some of the OASIS-derived reports that agencies participating in demonstration projects received are presented. By understanding these reports, clinicians can see how the information they collect is presented in reports and can better understand the importance of collecting complete and accurate data.
