From the ACC-NCDR website:
“EP Device Implant Registry™ establishes a national standard for understanding patient characteristics, treatments, outcomes, device safety and the overall quality of care for ICD/ CRT-D and select novel pacemaker procedures, while also delivering benchmarking data. Participating facilities can submit data for pacemaker procedures or submit data for ICD/ CRT-D procedures or submit data for both. The registry plays an important role in providing data-driven knowledge for optimizing patient care.”
Participation offers:
- Integration & Interoperability with other heartbase hbCOR registry events.
- Interoperability options from other hospital systems, such as Epic Clarity, to allow for the pre-population of discrete fields.
- A comprehensively streamlined & customizable electronic DCF, improving upon the flow and functionality of the ACC Online Tool, with options such as role-based access.
- Simplified reporting with the hbQuery Tool, with measure reporting and other standard reports to follow.
- Integration with the hbRecon Module to ensure EP-DI cases are correctly coded and billed, maximizing reimbursement.
- Planned hbAnalytics updates to include new measure reporting and associated breakout reports.
