On the GPC Global call (that's going on right now) Russ showed us KUMC's answers to Table C. Is there any chance we could get a copy of KUMC's answers, I'd like to model mine after what Russ showed on the phone call a few minutes ago.

Maybe Debbie’s solution is OK – I don’t see any language in the template to the effect that the numbers must add up to 100 percent, and multiple insurance is a fact of life in the real world. A footnote to the effect that the numbers are > 100 because of multiple insurance per patient may resolve the issue.

Debbie,

That’s a good question – I somewhat arbitrarily picked one of the groups per patient (Oracle min() function on the ID number associated with the group). Maybe that’s not a good approach - I’m open to other ideas.

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
