Sepsis is defined as a clinical syndrome in which patients have an infection that is accompanied by an extreme systemic response. Sepsis of sufficient severity that the function of major organ systems in the body (such as heart, kidney, brain, and others) is impaired is referred to as “severe sepsis.” Patients with severe sepsis that have continued organ system impairment and/or low blood pressure that does not respond to treatment with adequate fluid replacement are considered to be in “septic shock.” The combination of early detection of sepsis coupled with timely, appropriate interventions can significantly improve the chances of survival for patients with all types of sepsis.

The datasets contain hospital-level treatment measures and hospital-level risk-adjusted mortality rates for adult patients, with a diagnosis of severe sepsis or septic shock seen at New York State Article 28 (acute care) facilities and reported to the New York State Department of Health in 2015 and 2016.

The treatment measures and risk adjusted mortality rates are presented by hospital. Only hospital level measure data for which there were at least ten cases in the denominator is reported. Statewide measures are calculated using all hospitals, regardless of the number of sepsis cases treated.

This dataset includes Medicaid Managed Care, Commercial HMO, and Commercial PPO performance data from the Quality Assurance Reporting Requirements (QARR) by member demographic characteristics. QARR is largely based on measures of quality developed and published by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®). Plans are required to submit quality performance data each year. Demographic information analyzed in this report includes members’ sex, age, race/ethnicity, Medicaid aid category, cash assistance status, behavioral health conditions including serious mental illness (SMI) and substance use disorder (SUD), payer status, and region of residence. Measuring the quality of care, and the ability to measure disparities in care is an important first step to a better understanding of the underlying factors that drive differences in care among certain populations within Medicaid Managed Care, Commercial HMO, and Commercial PPO.

*Due to COVID-19 impacts, measures requiring hybrid review are not included in this dataset for year 2019.

These data are published annually for Medicaid Managed Care in the Health Care Disparities in New York State Report and on the NYSDOH website: http://www.health.ny.gov/health_care/managed_care/reports/

Note: This dataset is no longer updated. This dataset includes cumulative and weekly counts of the number of new COVID-19 cases reported, number of cases reached, percent cases reached, total contacts elicited, total elicited contacts reached, and percent contacts reached by each week. Please note: In the earlier days of the program, the number of cases represented the numbers reported by selected LHDs. Therefore, the volume could be much lower than all new COVID cases.

The Managed Long-Term Care (MLTC) consumer guide data provides information about the quality of care offered by the different plans and people’s opinions about the care and the services the plans provide. This information will help consumers choose a managed long-term care plan that meets their health care needs. The Managed Long-Term Care Regional Consumer Guide dataset contains each plan’s current ratings, the regions of the state they serve, customer service telephone number, and website.

This dataset supports the New York State Department of Health Hospital Profile website and includes demographic, inspection, complaint summary, and enforcement fine data for hospitals in New York State.

The Justice Center for the Protection of People with Special Needs was established in 2013 by the Protection of People with Special Needs Act. The Department adopted regulations to define those adult care facilities that, based on licensed capacity coupled with self-reported quarterly census data, are subject to the conjoined jurisdiction of the New York State Department of Health and the Justice Center for the Protection of People with Special Needs (“Justice Center”). Adult care facilities that are determined to be subject to the conjoined jurisdiction of the New York State Department of Health and the Justice Center are the entities listed in this dataset. For information on how to file a complaint, please refer to the "Notes" section below. For more information about the Justice Center visit https://www.justicecenter.ny.gov/ .

This dataset includes information on school reported COVID-19 testing and case positive data from the 2021-2022 academic year. Data was collected from BOCES programs on each operational day using the daily school survey form, which school administrators access by logging in to the NYSDOH school survey website.

The primary goal of publishing this dataset is to provide users timely information about disease spread and reporting of positive cases within schools. The data will be updated daily, reflecting data submitted by school administrators the previous day.

This dataset represents hospital-reported data for all adult patients with a diagnosis of severe sepsis or septic shock seen at New York State Article 28 (acute care) facilities and reported to the New York State Department of Health. Quality measures are calculated using this data for reporting hospital-specific rates and trends. The Adult New York State sepsis process of care measures were developed using a National Quality Forum (NQF) measure for guidance: NQF #500 Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock: Management Bundle. These measures, reported as statewide and hospital-specific rates, reflect several key processes of care that can increase the probability of surviving an episode of sepsis. There is one important outcome measure, mortality, included in this dataset for which statewide mortality rates and hospital-specific risk adjusted mortality rates are reported.

The Cancer Mapping data consists of counts of newly diagnosed cancer among New York State residents and is in response to legislation regarding "Cancer incidence and environmental facility maps" signed into law in 2010 (Public Health Law §2401-B). The law specifies the publication of maps showing cancer counts for small geographic areas along with certain facilities regulated by the State Department of Environmental Conservation. The official web site is called Environmental Facilities and Cancer Mapping.

The dataset is ONLY for the cancer-related data fields on the Environmental Facilities and Cancer Mapping web site. This dataset includes observed counts for 23 separate anatomical sites at the level of census block group. Block groups are small geographic areas typically averaging 1,000 to 1,500 people. To protect confidentiality, each area contains a minimum of 6 total cancers among males and 6 total cancers among females.

This interactive chart provides the average number of adult deer ticks, also known as blacklegged ticks, or by their scientific name Ixodes scapularis, collected per 1,000 meters sampled in the county (tick population density). Use the filters below to compare counties by year.

Collection and testing take place across New York State (excluding New York City) from October to December, when adult deer ticks are most commonly seen. Tick population density can vary greatly within a very small area and within a county. These data should not be used to broadly predict disease risk for a county.These data should simply be used to educate people that there is a risk of coming in contact with ticks and tick-borne diseases.

The Department of Health requires nursing homes to complete electronic filing of each facility's licensed nursing home beds and availability by bed category on a weekly basis.
