The Strong Start Awardees dataset provides information on the financial awards made to participants in the Strong Start for Mothers and Newborns Initiative. This initiative tested three evidence-based maternity care service approaches with the goal of improving health outcomes of pregnant women and newborns. The data can include the participant name, participant location, locations of practices participating under the participants’ umbrella practice, descriptive text for the type(s) of enhanced prenatal care provided, and the amount of funding awarded to the participant as a result of their participation in year 1 of the initiative.

The End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Facility Aggregation Group Performance dataset provides performance information in the End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Treatment Choices (ETC) Model. The dataset includes information on Performance Payment Adjustment (PPA), Modality Performance Score (MPS), home dialysis rate, and transplant rate, as well as the individual components of each rate for each model participant ESRD facility aggregation group.

 

All ESRD facilities within the same aggregation group share the same performance information. The supplementary aggregation group crosswalk file may be used to map aggregation groups to individual ETC Participant ESRD facilities.

The Managing Clinician Aggregation Group Performance dataset provides performance information in the End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Treatment Choices (ETC) Model. The dataset includes information on Performance Payment Adjustment (PPA), Modality Performance Score (MPS), home dialysis rate, and transplant rate, as well as the individual components of each rate for each model participant Managing Clinician aggregation group.

 

All Managing Clinicians within the same aggregation group share the same performance information. The supplementary aggregation group crosswalk file may be used to map aggregation groups to individual ETC Participant Managing Clinicians.
