Data is becoming increasingly important in the healthcare environment. The significance of complete and accurately reported data is growing with its intensified use for research, epidemiological studies, outcomes and statistical analyses, evaluation of quality of care, strategic planning, and equitable funding allocations. The Alberta Inpatient Data Quality Re-abstraction Study was completed to evaluate the accuracy and consistency of inpatient data reported by the selected health regions and to identify areas for potential data quality enhancement.
