Healthcare database; legislative intent; use of information

The law’s intent is to provide consumers, providers and health insurers with information on trends in the use and cost of health care services in the state in order to enhance decision making.  This will be done by compiling a uniform set of data and establishing mechanisms for disseminating the information.  All health care providers and third-party payers must supply the information necessary for a review and comparison of utilization patterns, cost, quality and quantity of health care services provided to the healthcare database.  This information must be compiled as required by the Department of Health and Environment, to improve decision making processes on access, identified needs, patterns of medical care, price, and use of health care services.
