Journal of public health management and practice : JPHMP·2022

Nurse-managed health centers (NMHCs) are vital for primary care access. A national conference established critical data elements for a standardized database to better showcase NMHC contributions and inform policy.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Nursing Informatics
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Nurse-managed health centers (NMHCs) are expanding as a key source of accessible, high-quality primary care in communities nationwide.
  • A significant challenge hindering the recognition and support of NMHCs is the absence of standardized data elements for data collection and reporting.
  • This lack of standardization impedes the clear articulation of NMHCs' contributions and complicates evidence-based policy development.

Framework:

  • The National Network for Nurse Managed Health Centers Data Consensus Conference convened 53 national experts to establish consensus on essential data elements.
  • The consensus focused on creating a foundational dataset for a national database, encompassing both clinical and financial/business practice elements.
  • Key clinical and financial data points were identified to standardize reporting across NMHCs.

Implementation:

  • The conference successfully reached consensus on a core set of critical data elements for a national NMHC database.
  • Discussions identified specific clinical areas where consensus was not achieved, highlighting areas for future research and standardization efforts.
  • Next steps involve refining data collection methodologies and addressing the identified gaps in clinical data standardization.

Implications:

  • Establishing a standardized national database will enable more robust reporting on the impact and value of NMHCs.
  • Standardized data will provide crucial evidence to inform and support policies aimed at the development and sustainability of NMHCs.
  • This initiative is expected to enhance the visibility and advocacy for NMHCs, ultimately improving community health outcomes.
