The period between baseline data and the comparison year is two years for infection and safety measures, and three years for readmission measures. This progress report is based on data from January 2015 to December 2017 for infection and safety measures, and September 2014 to August 2017 for readmission measures. The sources are claims and National Healthcare Safety Network data that is processed by the Hospital Industry Data Institute, the data company of the Missouri Hospital Association.
