This dataset measures the water and milk near the West Valley Demonstration Project site and other locations (background) around NYS to determine the normal levels of radioactivity and monitors the influence of human activities on these levels. The site numbers represent the location from which samples are collected. This dataset is not designed, or intended to monitor releases from discharge points at a specific facility (e.g., a stack). The facility operator performs this type of monitoring to meet the requirements of its licensing agency (e.g., a federal agency or the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation). A column has been added for values which can be graphed. Readings where a less than value is displayed show a value that is less than the detection limit of the measurement method and are essentially equivalent to 0. Variations in detection limit are due to variations in sample collection and measurement instrument performance.

This dataset contains the number of New York State live births by the infant’s birth weight in grams and the mother’s county of residence. The data presented here may not be the same as the Vital Statistics tables on the DOH public web due to data updates. For more information, check out: :http://www.health.ny.gov/statistics/vital_statistics/. The "About" tab contains additional details concerning this dataset.

The datasets contain hospital discharges counts (numerators, denominators, volume counts), observed, expected and risk-adjusted rates with corresponding 95% confidence intervals for IQIs generated using methodology developed by Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ).
The IQIs are a set of measures that provide a perspective on hospital quality of care using hospital administrative data. These indicators reflect quality of care inside hospitals and include inpatient mortality for certain procedures and medical conditions; utilization of procedures for which there are questions of overuse, underuse, and misuse; and volume of procedures for which there is some evidence that a higher volume of procedures is associated with lower mortality.
All the IQI measures were calculated using Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) inpatient data beginning 2009. US Census data files provided by AHRQ were used to derive denominators for county level (area level) IQI measures.

The mortality, volume and utilization measures IQIs are presented by hospital as rates or counts. Area-level utilization measures are presented by county as rates.

The PSIs are a set of indicators providing information on potential in hospital complications and adverse events following surgeries, procedures, and childbirth. The PSIs were developed by AHRQ after a comprehensive literature review, analysis of ICD-9-CM codes, review by a clinician panel, implementation of risk adjustment, and empirical analyses.

There are two datasets related to the State Level Prevention Agenda Tracking Indicators posted on this site. Each dataset consists of 96 state-level health tracking indicators and sub-indicators for the Prevention Agenda 2013-2018: New York State’s Health Improvement Plan. A health tracking indicator is a metric through which progress on a certain area of health improvement can be assessed. The indicators are organized by the Priority Area of the Prevention Agenda as well as the Focus Area under each Priority Area. Priority areas include Chronic Disease; Health and Safe Environment; Healthy Women, Infants and Children; Mental Health and Substance Abuse; and HIV, STDs, Vaccine Preventable Diseases and Healthcare Associated Infections. The most recent year dataset includes the most recent state level data for all indicators. The trend dataset includes the most recent state level data and historical data, where available. Each dataset also includes the Prevention Agenda 2018 state targets for the indicators. Sub-indicators are included in these datasets to measure health disparities among racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups and persons with disabilities.

Note: This annual report is no longer updated. Beginning with the 1st QSIR 2017, these reports will be updated quarterly only. Please see the link in the featured content. The Department of Health (NYSDOH) requires adult care facilities (ACFs) to complete an electronic filing of each facility’s licensed adult home and enriched housing program bed census, payor mix, and age demographics on an annual basis. These facilities include adult homes (AHs), enriched housing programs (EHPs), assisted living programs (ALPs), assisted living residences (ALRs), special needs assisted living residences (SNALRs), and enhanced assisted living residences (EALRs). Available bed and occupancy information in ACFs are self-reported and is not audited by NYSDOH. This dataset is refreshed on an annual basis.

This dataset contains the number of New York State live births stratified by county of residence and gestation in weeks. The data presented here may not be the same as the Vital Statistics tables on the DOH public web due to data updates. For more information, check out: http://www.health.ny.gov/statistics/vital_statistics/. The "About" tab contains additional details concerning this dataset.

This dataset includes Medicaid managed care performance data from the Quality Assurance Reporting Requirements (QARR) by member demographic characteristics). QARR is largely based on measures of quality developed and published by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®). Managed care plans are required to submit quality performance data each year. Demographic information analyzed in this report includes members’ sex, age, race/ethnicity, Medicaid aid category, cash assistance status, language spoken, behavioral health conditions including serious mental illness (SMI) and substance use disorder (SUD), and region of residence. Measuring the quality of care, and the ability to measure disparities in care is an important first step to a better understanding of the underlying factors that drive differences in care among certain populations within Medicaid managed care.
These data are published annually in the Health Care Disparities in New York State Report and on the NYSDOH web site: http://www.health.ny.gov/health_care/managed_care/reports/quality_performance_improvement.htm#link6.

Population data file is provided as an additional reference file when interpreting vital statistics death rates. The population data is derived from the corresponding release of the NCHS annual estimates of "Bridged Race Vintage" which are consistent with the Bureau of the Census estimates from "Vintage" (released in the summer).

The dataset contains the number of Medicaid Low Birth Weight newborns (numerator), the number of zip code Medicaid newborns (denominator), and observed rate for Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality Prevention Quality Indicator 9 (PQI 9) – Newborn Low Birth Weight Rate for Medicaid enrollees beginning in 2012.
The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Prevention Quality Indicators (PQIs) are a set of population based measures that can be used with hospital inpatient discharge data to identify ambulatory care sensitive conditions. These are conditions where 1) the need for hospitalization is potentially preventable with appropriate outpatient care, or 2) conditions that could be less severe if treated early and appropriately.
