Reporting Requirements Across Agencies

The Coalition conducted an inventory of hospital reporting requirements across health care agencies. For each agency, the document identifies reportable incidents, incident specifics required when reporting, disclosable information, as well as confidentiality issues. The agencies presented include: Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine, Massachusetts Department of Public Health, Massachusetts Department of Mental Health, Massachusetts Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, Joint Commission for Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services/Long Term Care, and the Food and Drug Administration.
