Reporting: Data Quality Performance Scorecard Flag Guide

Data Completeness Scores

This table is a provider-level “report card” evaluating if enrollments active during the report period meet the data quality standards established in the AKHMIS Data Quality Plan.

The table provides a count and percentage of enrollments that meet overall data quality standards as well as a count of enrollments that are below the standard for each “component”: Universal Data Elements (UDE) + Alaska-Specific UDEs (AKSDE), HUD Verification data, Domestic Violence questions, and Annual Assessments.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Differences in required data elements by program / provider have already been accounted for and are scored only on the elements required of the project.

Flag

Description

N/A

Indicates element is not scored for the listed provider.

1234

Indicates the provider should not have any enrollments. The Clients Active in Period report can be used to identify and move the enrollments to the appropriate project.

123

These numbers represent active enrollments that DO NOT have a housing move-in date (HMID) or have an incorrect HMID (outside the project start/end dates). The lower these numbers the better.

This is not a scored component and it is expected that not all enrollments will always have an HMID. The purpose is to remind program staff to update HMIS enrollments with HMIDs that have occurred after project start.

Data Timeliness Scores

This table is a provider-level “report card” evaluating if enrollment entered or exited during the report period meets the data timeliness standards established in the AKHMIS Data Quality Plan.

The table provides a count and percentage of enrollments that meet data timeliness standard for that project type. Data timeliness cannot be retroactively corrected, only improved on in future enrollments.

Enrollments evaluated on this tab were either added or exited during the report period. These enrollments may be different than the enrollments evaluated on the Data Completeness tab.

Exit timeliness is based upon the # of days between a Project Exit Date and the date an enrollment was last updated/edited. As there is no data element specific to the addition of the exit date, the 'date updated' is used as the closest proxy. In a small number of enrollments, exit timeliness may be skewed if any enrollments are edited after exit (such as a change to destination/reason) because the "date updated" used in comparison reflects this later date instead.

Fleeing / When

Data not collected / Missing

These questions are only evaluated for completeness if there is a yes answer in the first question. If there is a history of DV, these questions are required. Any data not collected or missing answers are flagged for review.

HUD Verification Errors/Warnings

The Data Accuracy - HUD Verification Errors/Warnings Report looks at each active client enrollment (open at any point) during the report period and analyzes the HUD Verification data in those records as of the Project Start Date and Project Exit Date (if exited).

The report highlights when issues are found in the data to assist users in correcting client records by displaying codes to indicate Errors (missing or conflicting data that need updating) and Review Items (data that should be updated if possible).

HUD Verification Data

HUD Verification Categories: Health Insurance, Disabling Conditions, Income & Sources, and Non-Cash Benefits.

Each HUD Verification category includes a gateway question and a sub assessment table with details on applicable types/sources.

  • Gateway = The general Yes/No question that appears above a HUD Verification sub assessment table
  • Types/Sources = Each row of specific information in the sub assessment table
