12
Patients - Defined
• An individual who has one or more visit that was reported on Table 5 during the calendar year• Medical, dental, behavioral health, vision, other
professional, and selected enabling services• (More on “visit” in a while)
• An individual counts once and only once regardless of the number of visits
13
Provider and Utilization Profile
• Types and quantities of services provided and staff who provide these services• Table 5 – Staffing and Utilization
• FTEs, visits, and patients by service
14
Staff FTEs - Defined
• Includes all paid, salary, and volunteer workers at any approved site
• FTE is actual for the year, not as of last day
• Based on hours paid including vacation, sick, continuing education, etc.

• Only one visit / day / provider / type• Unless 2 different providers at 2 different sites
• Count paid referral, nursing home, and hospital visits and visits provided by volunteers and contracted staff
• Exclude group* visits, screenings, immunization, or lab only, visits
16
Patients by Service - Defined
• An individual who receives one or more documented “visit” of any specific service type: – Medical – Dental
– Mental Health – Substance Abuse

– Enabling
17
Clinical Profile
• Quality of care and outcome indicators• Table 6A – Selected Diagnoses and Services (not
required for LALs)• Table 6B – “Quality of Care” Indicators• Table 7 – Health Outcomes and Disparities
• Electronic Health Record (EHR) AddendumSeries of questions on the adoption of EHRs, certification of systems and how widely adopted the system is throughout the health center’s providers
18
Quality of Care Indicators
• “Process measures” - If patients receive timely routine and preventive care, then we can expect improved health• Early entry into prenatal care (All prenatal patients)• Childhood immunizations (children age 2)• Pap tests (Women aged 21-64)• Weight Assessment, nutrition counseling, and
counseling on activities for children (Children and adolescents aged 2 – 17)
19
Quality of Care Indicators
• “Process measures” - If patients receive timely routine and preventive care, then we can expect improved health• Adult Weight Assessment (Adults aged 18+)• Tobacco Use Assessment (Adults aged 18+)• Tobacco Cessation Intervention (Tobacco
users aged 18+)• Asthma Intervention (Patients aged 5-40
diagnosed with persistent asthma)
20
Health Outcomes and Disparities
• “Intermediate outcome measures” - If this measurable intermediate outcome is improved, then later negative health outcomes will be less likely.• Normal Birthweight (All live infants born to
prenatal patients)• Controlled Hypertension (Adults aged 18-85 with
a history of hypertension) • Controlled Diabetes (Adults aged 18-75 with a
history of diabetes)
21
Options for Reporting

23
Costs and Revenues - Defined
• Costs on Table 8A are reported as accrued costs including depreciation and excluding bad debt
• Patient and other revenues on Tables 9D and 9E are reported on a cash basis
• Grants and contract revenues are reported using the “last party rule” i.e., “last party” to handle funds before you receive them
24
Differences between LAL and 330 UDS
• UDS Tables are identical to simplify reporting, training, and data analysis
• Selected UDS Tables have simplified reporting by LALs• Table 4: Delete managed care data and details on
homeless and/or farmworker patients• Table 6A: Deleted from LAL reporting
25
Differences between LAL and 330 UDS
• Selected UDS Tables have simplified reporting by LALs• Table 7: Delete race and ethnicity data for clinical
measures • Table 9D: Delete detail data on managed vs. non-
managed care and on retroactive payments• Table 9E: Delete data on 330 grant funds as well as
ARRA grant funds from BPHC

2. Designees will login to the EHB, navigate to the UDS report, complete and submit it.
3. Completing the UDS report is a three-step process:
a. Complete and validate tables
b. Resolve Data Audit checks
c. Review and submit report
4. HRSA may request changes to the report. If this is the case, the report will be made available to the FQHC Look Alike so that it can be changed and resubmitted.
29

HRSA EHB Notes
• HRSA EHB allows you to work on your report in parts, save it online and return to complete it later
• Multiple users can work on the report at the same time• Multiple users can work on different tables at the same time• Multiple users can work on different sections of the same table at the
same time (e.g., User A can work on one part of Table 7 while User B works on another part of it)
• HRSA EHB has two views: one for data entry and one for review• The view for “review” appears just like the printed form• The view for “data entry” is set up for user-friendly data entry

Data Audit Report
• When data entry is complete and all tables are in “Validated” status, you must run the data audit report.
• The data audit report is a list of errors that exist between the pages of the different tables in the report and audit exceptions that exist either in a particular page or between multiple pages of a report.
• Run the Data Audit Report to generate the list of data errors and exceptions (collectively called “Edits”).
