The Information and Quality Services Center launched its new data correction tool in April 2012. Since implementation, there have been several upgrades developed to improve user efficiency as well as improve the overall quality of the data. Changes include:

Blinding/Masking Functionality – The system d-identifies patient demographic information on records when the diagnosis on the claim is AIDS/HIV or Substance Abuse. No action required by the user;
Mass Sign-off Functionality – This added functionality will allow a user to sign-off multiple records with one function. Users select specific records based on the system selection criteria. This functionality omits the requirement to sign off on each record individually;
Mass Update Functionality – This enhancement allows the user to update data in multiple records with one transaction. Records are revalidated after the transaction is complete. Any new edit errors are assigned as a result of the change in the data field;
Sweep Removal – This functionality was removed from the Q-Edit system to allow users more control over the flow of records throughout the system. Users can now delete an entire batch of claims without fear of valid records moving to the warehouse. Users have expressed their satisfaction with Q-Edit since the removal of this functionality.
