Ongoing Projects

Minimum Data Set

The Hospital at Home Users Group (HaHUG) and Quality Indicators Council launched the Minimum Data Set (MDS) initiative in 2022. The MDS is a de-identified, patient-level dataset that seeks to capture information on all patients enrolled in Hospital at Home (HaH) programs nationwide, dating back to November 2020.

For more information, review the Executive Summary.
