WHY: To prepare your team to tell your “follow-up” story about how 7-day follow-up after hospitalization data is collected and tracked. These stories will help develop consensus on a more manageable, meaningful way to do and track follow-up after hospitalization. These locally derived follow-up rates will not be comparable between teams. They will be used to inform consensus-building only to improve the indicator for the future. WHAT: If your team is not formally tracking follow-up rates, you will not be able to contribute data for this indicator.
- Find out if your team is tracking “follow-up after hospitalization” in a formal way.
- Get data for your locally-derived follow-up rates for the most recent time period, whatever that may be for your team.
- Get details on the story of exactly how follow-up is done and what data are captured by whom to generate the follow-up rate.
- Get data on the follow-up rate from MOHLTC Health Data Branch (HDB) report (for comparison to locally derived rates).
- Set your locally derived rate, your MOHLTC rate and your story aside for submission to D2D 2.0 (see data submission guide).
