Abstrakt: A project by Rhode Island Health Services Research (SEARCH) to develop, adapt, and improve data systems in several Rhode Island long-term care settings includes skilled nursing and intermediate care facilities, two chronic care hospitals, mental health institutions, and home health agencies. A successful medical review system was developed for Medicaid nursing home patients which is now a program funded by the state, as well as a good abstracting system for the two chronic hospitals. Also, steps were taken to correct omissions end inaccuracies found in mental health data used in the Multi-State Information System (MSIS), and to modify a limited management information system used by home health agencies.
