MPOG Tools

Applications to aid in the management and analysis of MPOG data for research and quality improvement

DataDirect

DataDirect allows users to create queries using data submitted to MPOG. The tool provides filters for identifying a specific cohort of patients and allows for users to download a sample file with the appropriate approvals. Researchers can use DataDirect to identify patient, case, and institution counts for the cohort they are interested in studying. Quality Champions can generate a list of patients to audit outcomes or processes of case.

Active sites must obtain permissions to use DataDirect and fill out the DataDirect Affidavit.
