Laboratory and Laboratory Information System (LIS) Information

Hospitals that participate in the Comparative Effectiveness Study of Coronary Procedures will receive a list of hospital patients who meet the criteria of the study. Laboratory staff (or their contractors) will match the patients' identifying information to identify 30 laboratory test results. These laboratory results will be extracted and formatted into HL7 v2.5.1 messages (preferred) or HL7 v2.3 messages. If HL7 v2.3 or HL7 v2.5.1 is not an option, laboratory data will also be accepted as a flat file or a Microsoft Excel table. The messages will be batched together into a file to be transmitted to NYSDOH (instructions will be provided for data transport). Laboratory data will be collected once in 2011-2012 (2008-2010data).
