Resubmission function added to Direct Data Submission Platform
The Joint Commission’s Direct Data Submission Platform (DDSP) now features a resubmission function for chart-abstracted measures. This new capability allows organizations to correct chart-abstracted data that were previously entered (beginning with calendar year [CY] 2023 data) and/or add data that were inadvertently omitted so that the data accurately reflect performance on these metrics. This allows The Joint Commission to evaluate the most complete and accurate data possible to provide feedback and for public reporting.
The DDSP is used by assisted living communities, critical access hospitals, free-standing psychiatric hospitals, and acute care hospitals with ORYX performance measurement requirements.
Upcoming DDSP submission dates
The DDSP chart-abstracted measure module is open now for CY2024 data. Users should refer to the CY2024 ORYX® timeline on The Joint Commission’s ORYX FAQs page for opening dates and submission deadlines.
The CY2024 DDSP electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs) module is expected to open July 2024 for uploading and reviewing files. The eCQM data submission period opens Jan. 1, 2025, and 2024 eCQM data must be submitted by March 17, 2025. The DDSP eCQM data submission is a three-step process:
1. Upload Quality Reporting Document Architecture (QRDA) files in a Zip format and review the results.
2. Select the measures to be submitted for each quarter and submit the data.
3. Download and retain the Proof of Submission report and verify that the report reflects the data submitted.
