The Admin User will be responsible for assigning users and user roles for their organization.There are a number of registry user roles that can be assigned:Event Reader: User has access to read event information for their assigned facility.Event Writer: User has access to submit and edit event information for their assigned facility.Data Share Reader: User has access to read de-identified event information and data sharing reports from other data share facilities — facility must be a data sharing facility. Facility Admin: User receives automated event correspondence for facility events; manages facility/system users.The Admin User will assign new users for their facility/system and will assign their designated role(s). Assigning the user will generate a user name and temporary password which the Admin User will communicate to the new user. The user will use the temporary password to access the registry. When the user accesses the registry, they will be asked to create a secret word and reset their password.Change PasswordPlace cursor over “User” and select “User Options.”Select the “Change Password” tab.Type in current password.Type in new password (note password criteria).Confirm new password.Select “Change Password.”7753351714567627517780Update ProfilePlace cursor over “User” and select “User Options.”Select the “Change Profile” tab.Edit necessary profile information.Select “Change Profile.”CorrespondencePlace cursor over “User” and select “User Options.”Select the “Correspondence” tab.To receive any of the automated email reminders, select from the email options:Password Change: notification that personal password has been changed.Data Share Submission – new RCA/CAP is available for review: notification that a data share user has submitted a new root cause analysis and corrective action plan that is available for review by data sharing hospitals. (Data Share user only.)MOS due in 30 days (3 month): reminder that the measure of success for an event is due in 30 days. (Admin user only.)MOS due in 60 days (6 month): reminder that the measure of success for an event that has not met the measure of success at 3 months is due in 30 days.

The purpose of these recommendations is to create more accurate and consistent reporting across organizations: to ReportThe initial event information must be reported to the State through the web-based registry within 15 working days of the event discovery date.The findings from the root cause analysis conducted by the organization along with a corresponding corrective action plan must be reported within 60 calendar days of the event discovery date.What is the discovery date?The discovery date is the date the organization first becomes aware of the occurrence of a reportable event. Example: a sponge is retained during a procedure (event date) but is not discovered until the patient returns to the emergency department two days later (discovery date).How to Bill for Reportable EventsMinnesota has a voluntary agreement to not bill for care made necessary by a preventable Serious Reportable Adverse Health Care Event. Minnesota hospitals and payers have worked together to develop recommendations and guidance for implementing the Serious Reportable AHE Billing Policy: [PDF].How to Report an EventReporting of the event information is categorized into four different Cycle Steps within the registry:Cycle Step I: Initial Event InformationCycle Step II: PreparationCycle Step III: Root Cause Analysis (RCA)/Correction Action Plan (CAP)/Measure of Success (MOS)Cycle Step IV: SubmissionCycle Step I: Enter Initial Event InformationLog-in to site using assigned user name and password. Forgot user name or password?Place cursor over “Events” to view options “All Events;” “Events by Status;” and “Add Event.”Click on “Add Event.”Select the event category from the drop-down box.2907030692151638302812415.Tip: Additional guidance on determining reportability can be found in the Recommendations/Guidance document. Click on the link found in this section of the registry or in the “Resources” tab to access this document.Click “Continue.”Complete the initial event information.25495250The initial event information is comprised of a combination of drop-down menus and text boxes. To complete a field with a drop-down menu, click on the arrow for that field, and click on the appropriate selection.To complete a text box, type in the information. There are a number of formatting tools available for each text box, e.g., bold, font size and bullets.Note: All of the fields in this initial information form are required to be completed. The information won’t be saved until all fields are complete.When all of the fields have been completed, click on “Update.” This will save the information and will generate an automated notification to the State that a new event has been submitted. This submission must be completed within 15 working days from the event discovery date.Note: The registry will time-out after 60 minutes with no activity. If you do not complete the required fields and save the event information, the information that you have entered will be lost after 60 minutes of no activity.Cycle II: PreparationWhen the event is submitted, the registry will bring the user to the Event Detail Report page. The Event Detail Report will build the event report as information is entered. Note: Submitting the initial event information automatically generates a root cause analysis (RCA) due date. The RCA due date can be found on the Event Detail Report page in red below the Event Discovery Date.There are a number of tools available to prepare for the root cause analysis investigation of this event. The tools can be accessed by clicking on the links under “II. Prepare” section at the top of the page.Registry Literature — the articles and resources that have been consulted by other organizations submitting events in the category are available for review.12306305250815MDH AHE Criteria — the criteria that Stratis Health uses to review each submitted event. Each event must meet all of the MDH AHE Criteria to be considered a completed event by the State.RCA/CAP Tools:Triggering Triage QuestionsRegistry ScreenshotsMDH Review ProcessMDH Review CriteriaHierarchy of Corrective ActionsRCA Action Plan Template3438525-1139190Best Practice Questions — the questions that will need to be completed if the event is under the pressure ulcer, wrong body part, wrong patient, wrong procedure or falls categories.Tip: Print the Best Practice Questions as a guide in conducting a review of the event and medical record. This information may be useful during the root cause analysis team discussion. Best Practice Questions are available for pressure ulcer, falls and wrong site, procedure and patient events.Cycle III: RCA/CAP/MOSThe root cause analysis (RCA) and corrective action plan (CAP) need to be submitted within 60 calendar days from the event discovery date.Accessing the event to add RCA CAP information:After logging-in to the registry, place cursor over “Events” to view options “All Events;” “Events by Status;” and “Add Event.”Click on “Events by Status.”Click on the first tab “In Progress.”Find the event from the list and click on “Details” next to the event.Tip: To quickly locate an event, use the sorting tools at the top of the table; sort by: facility (if reporting for a system); facility ID; discovery date; or event type. To use this sorting function either click on the drop-down arrow next to the heading at the top of the column or type the information in the text boxes located beneath the column heading.29102054400552413000490220Step III A: General InformationAt the top of the Event Detail Report, click on Step III A: General Information.

Exception: Pressure ulcer events do not need a MOS. If you are reporting a pressure ulcer event, select “NO” for the MOS question.Note: The majority of MOS thresholds should be at or above 90%. If a threshold below 90% is selected, you will be asked to provide a short explanation for the lower threshold, e.g., this is a longer-term action plan that will be implemented over the next year with quarterly thresholds.The next screen can be used to:Add a new corrective action plan.Add another root cause finding or contributing factor.Return to the Event Summary Report to submit the RCA/CAP information to the State.Edit or delete the corrective action plan information.Add a New Corrective Action PlanClick on “Add” another Corrective Action Plan for this Root Cause.
