Hi,
When I do my query for Part B: Insurance Coverage Overview, there are
patients (25%) which are in multiple
groups: for example, Commercial and Medicare FFS. How are other groups
marking this? I will get > 100%
if I mark these individuals in both groups. The effective date is the
same, so I have no choice but to use both.

All,
As we discussed in the GPC-dev call yesterday
<http://listserv.kumc.edu/pipermail/gpc-dev/attachments/20150107/1a231dff/attachment-0001.pdf>,
we’re working on PCORnet Phase 2
<http://www.pcori.org/announcement/national-patient-centered-clinical-research-network-clinical-data-research-networks>
letter of intent (LOI). Much like the quarterly updates we’ve
provided to PCORI, the LOI document template
<http://www.pcori.org/sites/default/files/PCORI-PFA-CDRN-LOI-Template.doc>
has a couple of sections with tables devoted to population
characteristics:
·Part A: Population Overview
·Part B: Insurance Coverage Overview
Brittany sent out an e-mail to the site PIs on Friday (January 02,
2015) asking that each site fill in these sections (among others) by
Tuesday, January 6^th . However, as per GPC-dev meeting notes for
January 6, 2015
<http://listserv.kumc.edu/pipermail/gpc-dev/attachments/20150107/1a231dff/attachment-0001.pdf>,
*Dr. Waitman has extended the requested deadline to Monday January
12^th * (for the tables in sections A and B at least).
*Please let us know right away who from each site will be the primary
contact for providing numbers for the tables in parts A and B*. For
the PCORI quarterly updates, I believe I got population numbers from
the following people:
·University of Iowa: *Prakash Nadkarni*
·Medical College of Wisconsin: *Brad Taylor*
·Marshfield Clinic: *Laurel Verhagen*
·San Antonio: *Alex Bokov*
·Children's Mercy Hospital: *Rita Fothergill*
·University of Nebraska: *Jason Lebsack*
·University of Wisconsin – Madison: *Tom Mish*
·University of Texas Southwestern: *Phillip Reeder*
·University of Minnesota: *Justin Dale*
There’s been some discussion regarding what “Number of active patients
with data in the EMR” means. After talking with Dr. Waitman yesterday
I plan to use the same method we used to characterize enrollment for
PCORI milestone 1.1
<https://informatics.gpcnetwork.org/trac/Project/ticket/97>:
//
/“The GPC will use a refined definition of enrollment based upon the
criteria we used in our proposal...2 visits in the 3 years where the
visits are separated by greater than 30 days”/
I also plan to use that number for “active patients” as the
denominator for part B.
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Nathan
