2020 Q2 QDQ: That's a wrap!

Thank you for your participation in Quarterly Data Quality for 2020 Q2! Quarter after quarter, here at ICA we’re blown away by our users’ engagement with QDQ and your energy toward improving your providers’ data quality on behalf of the whole system.

In 2020 Q2, 57% of providers in the system submitted QDQ scores. We have seen consistent participation across all QDQ quarters so far: keep up the great work!

As we prepare for federal reporting projects like the LSA, we can already see the impact of QDQ on our system’s data. For example, data from QDQ quarters has error rates similar to (or better than!) rates after dedicated clean-up for the LSA in years past.

We’re continuing to work with CoC Coordinators and state funding partners on how we all can support QDQ participation and celebrate the hard work you’re doing. Stay tuned! If you have ideas for starting a competition with your neighboring CoC, increasing QDQ participation, or about any other aspect of QDQ, reach out to your CoC Coordinator or share them here!
