Making Population Health Data Trustworthy at State Scale

State and federal statutes require the collection and use of demographic data, including race, ethnicity, and language (REL), to support public health reporting. Connecticut enacted legislation requiring providers to transmit REL data to Connie, the state HIE, but data was often missing, inconsistent, or altered in transit. In response, Connie has built a replicable review process using ADT messages to identify gaps and feed corrections back upstream to enable reliable statutory reporting.
