Predicting the Risk of 1-Year Mortality in Incident Dialysis Patients: Accounting for Case-Mix Severity in Studies Using Administrative Data
BACKGROUND: Administrative databases are increasingly being used to study the incident dialysis population and have important advantages. However, traditional methods of risk adjustment have limitations in this patient population. OBJECTIVE: Our objective was to develop a prognostic index for 1-year mortality in incident dialysis patients using administrative data that was applicable to ambulatory patients, used objective definitions of candidate…
Using Administrative Datasets to Study Outcomes in Dialysis Patients: A Validation Study
BACKGROUND: The use of administrative health data and other secondary data sources to conduct research are increasing, and the quality of these data requires careful scrutiny to ensure that findings of studies based on them are accurate. METHODS: We conducted a multicenter, chart-abstraction study in Ontario, Canada to evaluate the ability of linked administrative databases to identify important baseline demographic and treatment information, cha…
Development of an Algorithm to Identify Preoperative Medical Consultations Using Administrative Data
BACKGROUND: Preoperative consultation by internal medicine specialists may help improve the care of patients undergoing major surgery. Population-based administrative data are an efficient approach for studying these consultations at a population-level. However, administrative data in many jurisdictions lack specific codes to identify preoperative medical consultations, as opposed to consultations for nonoperative indications. OBJECTIVE: To devel…
The Impact of Non-Fee-For-Service Reimbursement on Chronic Disease Surveillance Using Administrative Data
Injury in First Nations Communities in Ontario
Markers of Access to and Quality of Primary Care for Aboriginal People in Ontario, Canada
Objectives. We evaluated primary care accessibility and quality for Ontario’s aboriginal population. Methods. We compared a defined aboriginal cohort with nonaboriginal populations with analogous geographic isolation and low socioeconomic status. We determined rates of hospitalization for the following indicators of adequacy of primary care: ambulatory care–sensitive (ACS) conditions and utilization of referral care–sensitive (RCS) procedures fro…
