AIRA’s Publication Project Workgroup (PPW) was launched in 2022 to foster the increased publication of peer-reviewed IIS-related articles. As part of this effort, AIRA created a “collegial queries” email address, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. You can send publication-related questions to this email address, and subject matter experts (SMEs) from the PPW will respond. Any publication-related questions are welcome.

New HL7 Patient Matching Reports Released in AART
|
|
In July 2023, AIRA, CDC, and MACAW (the Measurement for Assessment and Certification Advisory Workgroup) launched a new measurable concept, HL7 Patient Matching, into the Testing and Discovery phase of the Measurement and Improvement (M&I) initiative. Patient matching is the process of identifying and linking a patient’s data across different health systems to create a comprehensive view of that person’s health care record. Initial reports were released in AART for participating IIS to view and assess alignment with MACAW-informed measures and tests for this area.

In Case You Missed It: Check Out the Power BI Tip of the Month – Using Tooltips to Their Fullest Potential
|
|
Tooltips can be used to feature additional data without placing another visual on the report. Power BI Desktop has a lot of options for tooltip customization that can give additional context to the user. For example, you can perform calculations such as the sum of the selection. Some custom visuals, like Drill Down Visuals, include a custom tooltip option that gives additional features. One feature gives the ability to show relevant data from another series, which means that you can give your users extra data in a clutter-free way. For example, use a custom tooltip to track immunizations by county. If interested, read more here.
