The Nursing Home Cost Report (RHCF) is a uniform report completed by New York nursing homes to report income, expenses, assets, liabilities, and statistics to the Department of Health (DOH). Under DOH regulations (Part 86-2.2), nursing homes are required to file financial and statistical data with DOH annually. The data filed is part of the cost report and is received electronically through a secured network. This data is used to develop Medicaid rates, assist in the formulation of reimbursement methodologies, and analyze trends.

The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) is an annual statewide telephone surveillance system designed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). BRFSS monitors modifiable risk behaviors and other factors contributing to the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the population. New York State's BRFSS sample represents the adult population living in private residences or college housing who have either a landline or cellular telephone, aged 18 years and older. Adults living in group homes or congregate settings are excluded from the survey. Although the overall number of respondents in the BRFSS is more than sufficiently large for statistical inference purposes, subgroup analyses can lead to estimates that are unreliable. Interpreting and reporting weighted numbers that are based on a small, unweighted number of respondents can mislead the reader into believing that a given finding is much more precise than it actually is. The BRFSS follows a rule of not reporting or interpreting percentages based upon a denominator of fewer than 50 respondents (unweighted sample). Both a csv and sas data files are available.

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.

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/

This dataset reports the number of reinfections in New York State since January 2021. A reinfection is when a person becomes infected with COVID and later becomes infected again. A person is considered a reinfection if they test positive again 90 days or more after their first positive test. The goal of this dataset is to provide users timely information about the trends in reinfections in New York State. This dataset is created by the New York State Department of Health from data reported to Electronica Clinical Laboratory Reporting System (ECLRS).

This dataset reports the number of people vaccinated by New York providers with at least one dose and with a complete COVID-19 vaccination series overall since December 14, 2020. Currently, three COVID-19 vaccines have been authorized for emergency use by the FDA and approved by New York State's independent Clinical Advisory Task Force: one that was developed by Pfizer and BioNTech, a second that was developed by Moderna and a third that was developed by Janssen/Johnson & Johnson. New York providers include hospitals, mass vaccination sites operated by the State or local governments, pharmacies, and other providers registered with the state to serve as points of distribution. This dataset is created by the New York State Department of Health from data reported to the New York State Immunization Information System (NYSIIS) and the New York City Citywide Immunization Registry (NYC CIR).

NYSIIS and CIR are confidential, secure, web-based systems that collect and maintain immunization information in one consolidated record for persons of all ages in NYS governed by Public Health Law 2168. Health care providers are required, by law, to enter all vaccines administered to children up to age 19. Immunizations administered to adults 19 and older may be reported with consent. New York State Department of Health requires all New York State vaccination providers to report all COVID-19 vaccination administration data to NYSIIS and NYC CIR within 24 hours of administration.

Vaccination data by age is based on address data reported to NYSIIS and NYC CIR by the providers administering vaccines. Age is calculated by subtracting the dob from the date of vaccination. Note that COVID-19 vaccine availability greatly expanded for the different age groups over the period of time this dataset covers. This data does not include vaccine administered through Federal entities or performed outside of New York State to New York residents. NYSIIS and CIR data is used for age group statistics. This dataset is updated weekly.
