Just because you or your SPARCS coordinator has the title doesn’t mean they have the hours. Free up your team’s time with web-based software that automates formatting, syncing, error sweeping and submission to the Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System.
Used in over 120 New York state hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers to achieve 100% accuracy.
Most ASCs don’t realize that New York state requires you to submit 100% of your patient data, just as they require it from hospitals.
You could be wasting time fixing SPARCS errors from your EHR and HIM systems.
Thousands of patient records a month.
Hundreds of new codes every quarter.
Your entire facility depends on the accuracy of your work.
And you’re supposed to keep up with every change New York state makes to SPARCS regulations?
Not when you have a system to take care of it for you.
UDS (UIS Data System™) is a web-based SPARCS compliance solution that edits and reports data on all inpatient,
ambulatory surgery, emergency department and clinic activity.
UDS is the most widely used SPARCS submission tool in the State of New York.
Here’s how:
UDS automates almost the entire SPARCS entry, correction and formatting process, including:
UDS automatically corrects:
These updates are randomly integrated into SPARCS.
With UDS, you won’t have to address code updates for your SPARCS submissions. Our software includes the most up-to-date codes.
You need to know when a record needs more than just a Zip code fix.
Here’s how UDS helps with that:
And UDS submits all the correct records every week so you can avoid a backlog.
The amount of time we spend on SPARCS reports has decreased from two weeks to 15 minutes!
UDS allows me to focus on other things. I highly recommend it.
It could not be more user-friendly.
When you receive a Statement of Deficiency from the New York State Department of Health, it goes on your facility’s public record.
And when it’s time to expand and submit your Certificate of Need, you may be delayed because of delinquent SPARCS records.
Stay compliant with SPARCS every month and avoid the delays, the embarrassment and the mad data entry fire drill.
Our dedicated team can work with your facility no matter what EMR or billing system you use.
Even if you have up to two years of delinquent data, we can get ALL your SPARCS data into UDS in less than a week.
