Purpose:

When selecting 'Upload Data' from the menu, the 'Upload Data' and the 'Upload Summary' pages become available.  The 'Upload Data' page automatically opens.

Click on the 'Upload Summary' tab to see the full list of individual QRDA I files and zip files that have been uploaded.  In addition, the page contains a summary for all uploaded files and, for each zip:

  • the total number of QRDA I documents included within the zip, 

  • the number of Accepted and Rejected documents, and

  • the last date/time that the last QRDA I document within the zip file was processed.

Tip - Results will appear after data is loaded and processed.

The Upload Data page may show that the individual QRDA I files and zip files have been uploaded to the DDS Platform; however, the Upload Data Summary page may display the message "Results will appear after data is loaded and processed".

  • Confirm that the uploaded individual QRDA I files and zip file did not generate any high-level platform errors by reviewing the ‘View Details’ on the Upload Data page.

  • If no high-level errors were generated by the file, then your individual QRDA I files and zip file is in the queue for processing against the schematron, edits, and eCQM logic.

    • The processing turnaround time is dependent upon how many other files (including from other organizations) are waiting in the queue for processing.

  • If you continue to receive this message after 24 hours, please create a DDS Platform Support Ticket by clicking on the 'Need Help?' link in the upper right-hand corner of the page.

  • Uploads – The count of all individual QRDA I files and zip files that have been uploaded.

  • Total Documents – The count of all QRDA I documents contained within the uploaded individual QRDA I files and zip files.

List of Zip Files and Individual QRDA I document (below Upload Summary):

Below the Upload Summary is a list of all individual QRDA I files and zip files that have been uploaded. 

  • The counts of Total Documents, Accepted Documents, and Rejected Documents is provided for each uploaded individual QRDA I files and zip file. In addition, the timestamp of when the last document within the zip file was processed is displayed.

List of Zip Files Definitions:

For each zip file:

  • Total Documents – The count of documents contained within the zip file.

  • Accepted Documents – The count of all unique QRDA I documents that have passed the Schematron and Edit rules without generating an error. These documents may have generated a warning message.  They have been evaluated by the eCQMs and can be submitted to The Joint Commission.

    • It is encouraged that the Data Accuracy page be reviewed and any Warning messages are addressed when possible, as they may point towards potential incorrect eCQM evaluations.  However, QRDA I documents with Warning messages may be submitted to The Joint Commission.

  • Rejected Documents – The count of all unique QRDA I documents that generated at least one Schematron and/or Edit rule error that caused the document to be rejected.

    • Review the Data Accuracy page to identify the reason why these documents were rejected.  Rejected documents cannot be submitted to The Joint Commission.
