Why should a facility be required to also report this information again directly to the VDH?
 

SCIP core measures are already being reported to a variety of validated sources and are publicly reported.  Why should a facility be required to also report this information again directly to the VDH?  Does the VDH question the validity of this information or expect that it would be reported in a different format to them?  It would make more sense to have the VDH provide links to this information in their website.
