  3. NMD • American College of Radiology (ACR) Initiative • Part of the NRDR ( National Radiology Data Registry) • Collects MQSA required data • Provides comparative information back to participating sites every 6 months • Allows sites to do national and regional benchmarking

  4. nrdr.acr.org

  5. What is NRDR? • Information system • Provides objective measures of practice processes and outcomes • Designed by radiologists • Includes • National Oncologic PET Registry (NOPR) • CT Colonography Registry • General Radiology Improvement Database (GRID) • IV Contrast Extravasation Registry (ICE) • National Mammography Database Registry • Quality Improvement Registry for CT scans in Children (QuIRCC) • Dose Index Registry

  6. Benchmark Data • National benchmark data provided by Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium (BCSC) are used for comparisons with facility data in the semi-annual reports provided to NMD participants • Also uses NMD results of all participating facilities as benchmarks • Facilities receive facility level and provider level data

  7. Benefits • ABR has qualified the NMD for practice quality improvement (PQI) for ABR Maintenance of Certification (MOC) Program • 3 PQI projects are required every 10 years for all radiologists who have not been given a lifetime certificate by the ABR

  8. Joining • Any radiology facility can participate • A participation agreement and a business associate’s agreement between ACR and the facility must be signed first

  9. Upload from facility to NMD • Obtained through input of data elements into facility RIS/ HIS • The RIS/HIS vendor must support the NMD platform (HL-7) fields • Vendor software must be approved by NMD • Facility requests upgrade to NMD version • Assign one person to upload data • Upload is one click

  10. NMD-Certified Software Partners 10

  11. Data Security • PHI, NPI is uploaded • Encryption of all incoming traffic to NRDR • Firewalls to secure data • Has third party safety monitoring • Data on individual patients stay property of facility • Aggregate, anonomyzed data from registry are property of ACR

  12. Data Elements • Patient Identifiers • Patient name, SSN, facility MRN, zip code • Race, ethnicity • Gender • LMP, height, weight • Family and personal h/o breast cancer • Biopsy and surgical history

  13. Data Elements • Mmg date • Radiologist NPI number • Reason for exam • Clinical symptoms • Prior mmg date, was it compared at read • Breast density

  14. Data Elements • BI-RADS category (7 point) • Mmg only • Combined assessment • Recommendations • Classification of most significant finding • S/F or digital • Use of CAD or double read

  15. Data Elements • Biopsy results • Modality used • Biopsy result ( benign, HR, malignant) • If cancer • Type ( invasive or DCIS) • Size • Nodal status • Stage at diagnosis

  16. Goals • PPV1 5-10% • PPV2 25-40% • Tumors found- stage 0 or 1 >50% • Tumors found- minimal >30% (1cm or less invasive or DCIS) • Node positive rate <25% From Linver et al AJR;1995;165:19-25

  17. Goals • CDR (Ca/1000) 2-10 • Prevalent 6-10 • Incident 2-4 • Recall rate 10% or less • Sensitivity >85% • Specificity >90% From Linver et al AJR;1995;165:19-25

  18. SAMPLE FACILITY REPORT 18

  19. Data Presented • Initial upload can be last 6 months or year • Can elect to upload prior data if you like • Initial older data can be incomplete • First report back will only give data results that you upload • Will get 2 reports going forward, data with at least 1 year follow up and preliminary data that does not yet have 1 year follow up

  20. SAMPLE PHYSICIAN REPORT 32

  21. Summary • NMD will help with MQSA audit • NMD will help with required PQI • NMD provides a feedback mechanism for radiologists and facilities to see if their practice can be improved
