Data Interface
 

The Patient Safety Authority has begun the implementation of a data interface to accept Incident reports from Act 13 of 2002 reporting facilities directly through their existing internal incident reporting systems.  Data interface cannot be done for facilities that are reporting healthcare-associated infections under Act 52 of 2007 or for those reporting Serious Events. Only facilities reporting Incident reports can develop an interface with the Authority. Facilities that want to develop interface capabilities should contact Judy Marpoe, PA-PSRS Project Manager, at  jmarpoe@state.pa.us

Links to the PA-PSRS Automated Data Interface Specifications are accessible below.  Please note that all information provided regarding the PA-PSRS data interface specifications, which information includes but is not limited to information regarding the data structure and processing logic of the PA-PSRS system, is owned exclusively by the Pennsylvania Patient Safety Authority.  This information may be used only in connection with, and solely for the purpose of, the development of an interface between the PA-PSRS system and an internal reporting system at a medical facility that is both 1) physically located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and 2) subject to the reporting requirements of Act 13.  All other use is prohibited without the express written permission of the Patient Safety Authority.
